WELCOME TO THE LOUISIANA STATE BAR ASSOCIATION'S COVID19 WEBINARS!
This popular COVID19 webinar series was created in response to the rapidly changing legal environment arising out of the initial stages of the COVID19 pandemic. While the series has concluded, the pandemic has not, and we as a legal community will still be responding to the ever changing landscape for the foreseeable future. For this reason, we are retaining this webpage so that members may access the materials submitted by the various presenters, and be informed as to those recorded COVID19 topics which are now available for on-demand viewing and CLE credit for a fee in the
InReach catalog.
