From December 12th until February 13th we will be accepting program proposals for our 2009 Fall Meeting, which will take place in Miami Beach, Florida, from October 27th-31st.

• Public International Law
• Rule of Law
• Dispute Resolution / Litigation
• Business / Transactional
• International Trade / Regulatory
• Latin America / Caribbean
• Corporate Counsel
• Young Lawyers
