Reputation management experts Casey Boggs and Sameer Somal to co-present “Court of Law & Court of Public Opinion” CLE for National Bar Associations

(PRUnderground) July 2nd, 2024

Global reputation management experts Casey Boggs (president of ReputationUs) and Sameer Somal (CEO of Blue Ocean Global Technology) have partnered to co-present multiple continuing legal education (CLE) courses titled, “Reputation Management: Court of Law & The Court of Public Opinion” to state and city bar associations across the United States. On Friday, June 21, Somal and Boggs successfully completed the CLE session for Louisville Bar Association members at the Carl A. Warns, Jr. and Edwin R. Render Labor and Employment Law Institute.

Other CLE sessions Boggs and Sameer Somal offer include:

• Reputation Management: When To Bring in Communication and Public Relations Support
• Internet Defamation: How An Expert Can Help You in Court
• Cases of Online Defamation: Ways to Handle It by Rights
• Defamation of Character and Emotional Distress: Damage Charges

“These reputation-themed CLEs not only help law firms and attorneys meet their legal education requirements, but they also provide actionable insights that further protect and defend clients,” says Boggs, whose specialization encompasses reputation management, internal communication, crisis mitigation, cyber-incident response, public relations and lawsuit communication support.

“In today’s fast-paced interconnected and polarizing world, an attorney’s client’s reputation is more important than ever,” says Somal. “A single misstep or a polarizing lawsuit can have devastating consequences, leading to heavy financial losses, plummeting stock prices, a tarnished brand image and lack of customer trust.”

Somal is also a published author and an expert witness in intellectual property, trademark and Internet defamation cases. Additionally, Sameer plays an active role in authoring CLE programs in partnership with the Philadelphia Bar Foundation and is a past member of the Legal marketing Association (LMA) Education Advisory Council.
