11:00 AM – 12:15 PM | What You Can't See Can Hurt You – Lessons from Litigating Invisible Provisions and Implied Covenants

9:00 AM – 10:15 AM | What, Me Worry? Ethics in Negotiations and Lease Disputes

These complexities are magnified when disputes arise and mediation, arbitration, and lawsuits are pursued. This panel of experienced real estate transactional and litigation practitioners will discuss innovative approaches and strategies that focus on practical, effective, and efficient solutions, including through the use of AI and other emerging technology.
