RILA's cultivated retail legal community offers valuable wisdom – with a one-of-a-kind network – to share practices, exchange ideas, and engage with peers from leading retail companies.
The Retail Law Conference is one of the premier events that focus on in-house counsel working in the retail industry. This conference is here to help you answer your questions with strategies that work. You'll explore the latest legal trends in the industry with law firms featuring some of the most brilliant legal minds. Keep your skill set competitive and fresh with content presented by some of the most innovative, inspiring, and creative law firms in the country.
We suggest arriving early on Wednesday, October 9th. This allows time to check in at the hotel and collect your conference badge before the Welcome and Opening General Session begins at 1:00 PM.
Hotel check-in is at 4:00 PM, and early check-in isn't guaranteed. However, bags may be checked via concierge service if your room is not immediately available.
The conference ends on Friday, October 11 at 10:15am. We recommend departing no sooner than 2:00 pm to allow enough time for transportation to the airport. Yom Kippur begins at sundown on Friday, October 11. All conference sessions will conclude Friday morning to ensure attendees observing the holiday have adequate time to travel home.
