POF Seminar: Conflict of Interest – What are the rules now?

Please note that this event has already occurred. Go back to events to see upcoming events.

Presenter: Greg Chambers – Board Chair, Partner – Phillips Ormonde Fitzpatrick Lawyers

The recent overhaul of the Code of Conduct for Patent and Trade Mark Attorneys has changed the obligations placed on practitioners when providing professional services. What are the new rules and how do these now compare with the obligations on practitioners in other countries, such as in the United States? This seminar will canvas some of the issues which have vexed policy makers in recent times, in connection with the responsibilities of professional advisers in avoiding a conflict of interest.

The duration of the seminar will be approximately 1 hour.
