Partner Brian Kent to present to the National Crime Victims Bar Association’s National Conference

On June 22, 2009, partner Brian Kent will be presenting to several hundred crime victim attorneys and prosecutors at the National Crime Victim Bar Association’s National Conference in Washington, D.C. Mr. Kent, a former sex crimes prosecutor and current crime victims attorney, will address the importance of a positive working relationship between prosecutors and civil Attorneys in litigating a case that arises from a criminal incident. Mr. Kent will rely on personal experiences in addressing the best way that counsel can work together towards achieving the common objective of justice for the victim. Specifically, Mr. Kent will lecture on the best way for a civil attorney to establish and maintain relations with local law enforcement and prosecutors, how to assist by acting as a conduit between the victim and the prosecutor, making requests for discovery, and how the civil attorney can be an effective participant in the development of the criminal case by using their resources to aid the prosecutor.
