This program is presented by experts for the Williams Institute at the UCLA School of Law and will address current issues related to the elimination of bias in the legal profession and judicial system, including (1) ways in which compensation packages by law firms and other legal employers often adversely affect employees who are in same-sex relationships, including marriages; (2) experiences and treatment of gay, lesbian, and bisexual persons as jurors and court users; and (3) the federal litigation challenging Proposition 8 (Perry v. Brown). Professionals at the well-known Promises Treatment Center will address intervention, education, and treatment of addicted lawyers.
