Product Details
Litigation against the government can be complex. There are restrictions on the types of claims that can be brought, as well as the damages that can be recovered. The South Carolina Bar CLE Division is proud to present this seminar, which will shed light on these cases, provide guidance on how to prosecute them, and offer practical advice on mastering the details that will give you and your clients an optimum chance to prevail.
You will learn about the key issues and causes of actions you need to understand, including the SC Tort Claims Act and Section 1983 claims, as well as the Freedom of Information Act, employment claims against governmental employers, and ethical issues unique to governmental liability litigation. Best of all, you will get valuable insights and analysis from the state circuit and federal district bench!
If you represent or want to represent claimants with causes of action against a governmental entity, this is a program you can't afford to miss!
