Networking Meeting

We hope you will join us for our July 20th HRP-MN Networking Meeting!

Our topic for the morning:

“Avoiding Legal Landmines by Better Understanding Recent Changes to the
Family Medical Leave Act (FMLA)”

It sounds like a mouthful, but our speaker, Debra Weiss, Esq., Associate at Meagher & Geer, P.L.L.P , (www.meagher.com) will help us make sense of it all! What changed? When does it change? What do we need to do or do differently? It should be a very educational morning!

Speaker Bio: Debra Weiss, Esq., Meagher & Geer, P.L.L.P.

Debra Weiss received her J.D. from Hamline University School of Law in 1998. For the past decade, she has focused her practice on the defense of employers in the challenging and ever-changing landscape of employment law. She understands that business decisions are not always made in the courtroom and works diligently to design practical solutions that balance a company’s legal compliance issues with its business objectives and goals in an evenhanded and creative manner. She has consistently been recognized as a Minnesota Rising Star by Minnesota Law and Politics magazine.

To protect against claims, Debra provides advice, counseling and drafting services for company employment policies and procedures. She regularly speaks on employment law subjects. Debra offers a unique sub-set of employment law expertise in the area of school law, which governs the treatment of students with disabilities in the educational system.

She serves on the board of Resource, Inc. – a Minnesota organization providing support services for people who are unemployed, disabled, recovering from chemical dependency and living with serious mental illness
