The Los Angeles Business Journal named Crowell & Moring partners Jennifer S. Romano and Agustin D. Orozco  to its list of Leaders of Influence: Litigators & Trial Attorneys 2024. The list recognizes lawyers in Los Angeles “who go to the proverbial mat to fight for their clients before judges and jury have their own unique sets of skills.”

Managing Intellectual Property has recognized four Crowell & Moring attorneys and practices in its 2024 IP Stars guide. The guide, which is in its sixth edition, “brings together the world’s foremost law firm and corporate trademark experts, allowing the wider community to benefit from their insight, experience and perspectives.”

Crowell & Moring's Jennie VonCannon, Evan Wolff, and Michael Gruden, members of the firm's Privacy & Cybersecurity and Government Contracts Groups, will be speaking at the NCMA World Congress, taking place on July 23, 2024, in Seattle, Washington. They will lead a skill-based session, "Making CMMC 2.0 Requirements Work for Your Organization," at 10:30 AM PST.

Join us for our West Coast Government Contracts Seminar. For your convenience, we are pleased to offer this seminar on two separate occasions—on June 11th in Crowell’s San Francisco office, and on June 12th at the Hyatt Regency Santa Clara.  We hope that you can make one (or both) of these events.

The University of California will be hosting the 2024 Ethics, Compliance and Audit Symposium at the Hilton Los Angeles in Universal City.

Join Jennie VonCannon alongside fellow panelists Dipo Akin-Deko, Head of Legal at Bower Group Asia, Inc., and Koutayba Yamak, Partner at PwC, for an AI webinar hosted by Trace International as they share their insights into all things AI and data analytics.

Although data analytics and AI have been popular topics in recent years, interest in AI further surged following the release of ChatGPT in December 2022 and is revolutionizing the way that work gets done. Our panelists will discuss the risks and benefits of AI and data analytics, as well as providing practical guidance for how to justify the cost and value-adds to a company’s leadership, how to continually evolve with new changes, and how to analyze and use data. The panelists will also demonstrate how data analytics and AI can be used to identify and respond to corruption.

Jennie VonCannon will be featured as a panelist on ID-Pal's upcoming webinar in association with AML Intelligence. The panelists will explore the critical aspects of using Generative AI in client onboarding, focusing on the evolution and security of the identity market. The panel will discuss the latest trends, emerging threats, and innovative solutions to enhance cybersecurity, anti-fraud measures, and regulatory compliance. 

Please join Global Counsel Leaders, the leading industry forum for Chief Legal Officers and senior General Counsel (GC), in conjuction with sponsor Factor, for a virtual roundtable on cybersecurity.
