Our panels at WonderCon 2024 are brought to you by the Letter G for Godzilla and Ghostbusters! We are thrilled to return for two panels highlighting a new “empire” of law! Check out our schedule below.
Lawyers love Kaiju! Just think of all the liability issues after a Godzilla rampage. Will insurance cover a Kaiju stepping on your house? What do you do if you find an orphaned baby? What are the legal ramifications of having secret wives with families in two countries? Those are questions for lawyers! A panel of attorneys and judges discuss Godzilla Minus One, Monarch Legacy of Monsters, and more, celebrating the 70th anniversary of Godzilla. Featuring Circuit Judge John Owens (9th Circuit of Appeals), U.S. Magistrate Judge Stan Boone, Monte Cooper, Esq. (Goodwin), Katrina Wright, Esq. (Best Best & Krieger LLP), Kate Bridal, Esq., and Joshua Gilliland, Esq. (Greenan, Peffer, Sallander, & Lally LLP). Panel organized by The Legal Geeks.
