COVID-19 and Other Pandemics: Business and Legal Challenges, a new treatise from PLI Press, is now available for purchase.
The dramatic rise in client questions about the fallout from COVID-19 – on workplace risks, liability, health insurance, contracts and force majeure clauses, testing and tracing and more – presents a real-time challenge: Lawyers need clear answers now to navigate the regulatory and medical challenges.
This book, from public health and safety regulation experts James O’Reilly and Philip Hagan, provides background and analysis of legal and scientific issues that clients will need to understand in order to manage the new “normal” they are facing as they try to conduct business amidst a global pandemic.

PLI Press is proud to publish the new Seventh Edition of Kane on Trademark Law: A Practitioner’s Guide, a classic for more than three decades. This edition brings forth the insight and expertise of Kathleen E. McCarthy, the new author of the treatise, who is a partner in the New York office of King & Spalding, LLP, President of the New York Intellectual Property Law Association (NYIPLA), and former Editor-in-Chief of the Trademark Reporter.
