During this CLE, the presenters plan to summarize and highlight the main points of important bills that were passed and changes to existing laws, identify significant policy changes, explore how new laws affect different groups, provide insights into the legislative process, including how bills were debated, amended, and voted on, discuss the potential long-term effects of the session’s actions and offer recommendations for future legislative efforts. This program will help Nevada attorneys to navigate legal developments while still promoting diversity, equity, and inclusion.
