2010 marks not only two decades since passage of the Americans with Disabilities Act, but Dinsmore & Shohl's 20th Annual Labor and Employment Law Seminar -- which provides employers with annual, in-depth updates and analysis of cutting edge labor and employment law topics. This year, we are pleased to invite you to join our team of nearly 60 attorneys practicing in labor and employment and our keynote speaker, EEOC Commissioner Constance Barker from Washington, D.C., for a detailed look at the EEOC, health care reform (Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act of 2010), and case law, statutory and regulatory trends and developments certain to substantially impact all businesses.
