Galloway, Johnson, Tompkins, Burr & Smith director Joe Hassinger will participate in the IALDA legal seminar and mock trial to be presented at the Roller Skating Association/International Laser Tag Association conference in April. “Such seminars,” explains Mr. Hassinger, “allow defense counsel who have considerable experience in the amusement, recreation, entertainment and leisure industries to provide business owners with practical advice that will help them reduce the frequency and severity of claims.”
