This CLE program explores how the human brain processes information, why it relies on mental shortcuts, and how those shortcuts can shape judgment without our awareness. The first half of the presentation examines the neur... More Info

Live Webinar: Deal Done, Dispute Pending: Working Capital True-Ups, Seller Notes, and Earnouts in M&A Deals

This program follows one hypothetical acquisition of a business through three common fights: an inventory true-up that comes up short, a buyer who stops paying the seller note, and an earnout the seller says the buyer sabotaged.
