<p>I will be joining <a href="http://www.inversecondemnation.com/inversecondemnation/2010/10/new-book-sociallawyers-transforming-business-development-2010.html" target="_self">Jayne Navarre</a> (author of <a href="http://www.inversecondemnation.com/inversecondemnation/2010/10/new-book-sociallawyers-transforming-business-development-2010.html" target="_self"><em>social.lawyers: Transforming Business Development </em></a>(West 2010)), and <a href="http://njcondemnationlaw.com/" target="_self">Anthony Della Pelle</a> (NJ Condemnation Law blog) leading a session on "<em>The 'Social' Lawyer: New Media Strategies for Marketing Your Eminent Domain Practice</em>," about how eminent domain attorneys can use social media for business development or simply to keep up on the latest cases.</p>
<p>Here's the agendas for the <a href="http://ali-aba.org/index.cfm?fuseaction=courses.course&course_code=CS035#program" target="_self">advanced course</a>, and for the <a href="http://ali-aba.org/index.cfm?fuseaction=courses.course&course_code=CS036#program" target="_self">101 course</a>. As I've <a href="http://www.inversecondemnation.com/inversecondemnation/2010/02/aliaba-annual-eminent-domain-conference-wrapup.html" target="_self">written before</a>, both feature stellar faculty, all experts in the field of condemnation and eminent domain law.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.faegre.com/showbio.aspx?Show=2112" target="_self">Leslie Fields</a>, the Planning Co-Chair of the Eminent Domain and Land Valuation Litigation course provides more detail on the courses:</p>
<blockquote>The power of eminent domain is being reshaped across the nation by court rulings and legislation. Much of the recent court activity and legislation has involved the controversial use, or attempted use, of eminent domain power to take private property for economic development by private parties. Redevelopment, however, is not the only fluid area in takings law. <em>Eminent Domain and Land Valuation Litigation,</em> which I co-chair, addresses those areas where new developments in the law and procedure have and will reshape the practice. Learn what's new in the cutting edge areas of eminent domain law and how the practice in this field continues to evolve.<br /> <em><br /> <em>Condemnation 101: Making the Complex Simple in Eminent Domain</em></em> provides an excellent introduction (or refresher) to basic concepts and techniques of preparing and presenting an eminent domain case. This course of study aims at equipping registrants with a broad overview of eminent domain and providing essential practice tips from some of the most experienced eminent domain lawyers across the country. This tutorial course is designed to accelerate the learning curve process and touch upon strategies and techniques that work best to win condemnation cases.<br /> <br /> If you have attended <em>Eminent Domain</em> in prior years, we hope that you will attend again, as well as pass this information on to a friend or colleague who may be interested in either or both courses. We look forward to seeing you this February in warm, sunny Coral Gables, or "virtually" via the web!</blockquote>
