Effecting Change: The Role of a Public Lawyer
Friday, December 6, 2019
11:00 am – 2:00 pm
Piedmont Community Hall
711 Highland Ave, Piedmont CA
In this highly charged moment for the Bay Area and the country, we are honored to welcome Louise Renne, lawyer, former Supervisor and one-time City Attorney for the City and County of San Francisco, California. Renne was California Deputy Attorney General for 11 years. She served in the environmental and criminal divisions, and argued on behalf of the state before the California Supreme Court and the United States Supreme Court.
Ms. Renne heads the Renne Public Law Group which advises and advocates for public agencies, nonprofits, individuals, and private entities in need of effective and creative legal solutions. She leads the firm’s public litigation practice. Currently, she is working on cases involving opioid abuse and e-cigarette dangers for youth.
Louise Renne is known for transforming the traditionally defense-oriented practice of municipal law by creating an affirmative litigation program that won significant victories for cities and counties in California. As a nationally recognized and respected leader in municipal law, she often testifies before federal, state, and other governmental bodies. She is also frequently requested to conduct impartial investigations for local public agencies in high-profile cases.
The presentation, including Q&A, begins at 11:00am, followed by lunch at 12:00 pm.
Speaker and lunch is $35. To reserve your spot, visit LWVPiedmont.org, and click the Holiday Luncheon RSVP link. Payment via credit card, debit card or PayPal is accepted.
