We are pleased to announce that the Arab American Lawyers Association of Southern California (www.aalasc.org ) is joining the International Law Section of the Los Angeles County Bar Association (www.lacba.org ), in organizing an employment law seminar on November 5, 2009, from 9:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m at the LACBA Conference Center in downtown Los Angeles. Breakfast to be served at 8:30 a.m. The topics include the extraterritorial application and extension of US Laws and enforcement of US laws in foreign jurisdictions in the context of employment law.
