This will be more of a consumer-level program (as contrasted with a CLE for lawyers who routinely practice in the real estate area). Katie Lupo will be chairing this CLE, and she has prepared the attached outline of topics. The number besides each topic indicates the time allowed for the presentation on that topic (for example, the first topic - whether to purchase or lease office space - will be covered in 15 minutes). No topic requires more than 15 minutes, and many require 10 or less.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>The presentation will be divided into 4 segments of 45 minutes each, with each segment presented at lunchtime.

That format will allow each of the 23 or so topics to be covered by one or two speakers, with each speaker presenting from his or her office (in other word, the first topic could be covered by a presenter in West Palm, and the second by a presenter in Jacksonville). Our hope is that at least 23 committee members will volunteer to cover at least one topic each. Given that each speaker will speak for only a few minutes, and that this is a consumer-oriented course and will focus on practical (rather than esoteric legal) issues, the preparation time should not be significant. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>Please consider signing up as a presenter.
