Convention Confidentiality Agreement

CONFIDENTIALITY AGREEMENT

As an attendee at this Convention, I understand that I will have access to confidential, privileged, or proprietary information, including information concerning AAJ’s legislative and/or regulatory advocacy. I agree not to disclose or disseminate such information without the written permission of AAJ, except to persons I know to be plaintiff attorney members of AAJ or members of an AAJ-affiliated trial lawyer organization. Additionally, I agree that I will not record, by audio, visual, or other means, any portion of any meeting or event during the Convention without the permission of AAJ.

I further understand that if I knowingly and purposely violate this Agreement, my membership status in the Association will be reviewed and may be revoked; and I may be subjected to disciplinary charges, including, but not limited to, charges brought before state licensing boards. Upon request, I will provide my state bar identification number(s); and, if a Law Student Member, I will, upon request, identify the name of my law school or, if a Paralegal Affiliate Member or if registered as a Legal Administrator, will, upon request, identify the name of my AAJ sponsoring attorney.

The American Association for Justice reserves the right to, in its sole discretion, refuse entrance to the event and/or remove any individual from the event whose behavior is disruptive and/or is not consistent with the character and purpose of the show. All American Association for Justice badges are the property of the American Association for Justice and must be returned to the American Association for Justice upon request.
Finally, by agreeing to the terms of this Agreement, I am certifying that if I am registering as an AAJ Regular Member, I am licensed to practice law, I am actively engaged in the practice of law and that, for the most part, based on caseload and time, I represent the plaintiff in civil litigation or represent the defendant in criminal litigation.
