January Meeting


Contracts and Lawyers' Work: Real Life Cases!

Speaker: Alan Dickson, Attorney at Law

"Alan Dickson, our speaker for the evening, will talk about the practical realities of
his legal practice involving contracts. He'll share real life cases where tactics & decisions either turned out "brilliantly" or became "blunders".

Alan will focus on issues involving contract administration of terms-and-conditions, relationships between attorney and client, and relationships between the attorney and the other side (the "bad guys"). He will also reveal the clumsier side of the life of a hard-working attorney, the side very few lawyers would dare publicly reveal!

Please join us for a evening that will be both enjoyable & humorous as well as educational & insightful! See you there!

NAPM-San Diego's dinner meetings are held the second Tuesday of every month. Locations vary to accommodate the diverse locations of our members, so be sure to scroll down to read about our current meeting or check the future schedule for meetings to come. Remember that you do not have to be a member to come and join us!

General Information

Reservations are required.....kindly reserve your seat online or by phone, fax or mail.

The following details apply to all members and non-members planning to attend one of our meetings:

  • Price:
    With reservations $28 for members $35.00 for non-members
    At the door $35.00
  • Cancellations:
    Any member/non member who fails to attend after having made a reservation, and has not cancelled by 4:00 PM on the Friday prior to the dinner meeting, will be invoiced $30.00 for the cost of the dinner.

    Due to the fact that NAPM-SD has to pay the full price of each guaranteed dinner (we give a count on Friday), it has become necessary to charge the full price to the member/non member that fails to attend after making a reservation. It is not fair to the general membership to subsidize costs of dinners.
