The Delaware State Bar Association and Courtroom Connect Announce New Program for Bar Associations: The DSBA Distinguished Speakers Panel

(Atlanta, GA) May 15, 2006 - The Delaware State Bar Association (DSBA) has partnered with Courtroom Connect, a leading provider of advanced communications services to the legal industry, including videoconferencing, Internet, and video streaming, to create the DSBA Distinguished Speakers Panel, a program that provides bar associations across the country with access to highly prominent leaders of the legal industry through interactive videoconferencing.

According to Rina Marks, Executive Director of the Delaware State Bar Association, "The DSBA began working with Courtroom Connect three years ago to provide our members with state of the art Internet and video services. We quickly found that Courtroom Connect's videoconference network, service, and support would provide a unique opportunity to bring together bar association members and leaders in the community in an efficient and cost-effective way. We have recruited some of the most highly respected legal minds in the industry, and now any bar association that joins Courtroom Connect's Bar Connect program has access to this impressive list of speakers."

Speakers on the panel include some of the most high-profile names in the legal profession; including Kenneth R. Feinberg, Esq.; Steven A. Cozen, Esq.; Richard K. Herrmann, Esq.; Robert G. Morvillo, Prof. Samuel Issacharoff; Ira Lee Sorkin, Esq; Michael Mone, Esq.; William S. Lerach, Esq. and others.

"It is truly an honor to be selected to this distinguished panel," remarked Kenneth Feinberg, Esq., Managing Partner of the Feinberg Group, "and it is exciting to be a part of this technological breakthrough in our industry. As lawyers, we have not always been on the cutting edge of technology. The DSBA Speakers Panel is changing that by leveraging the very latest technology to bring together lawyers of all areas of the law from all regions of the country. We are breaking down geographical and professional barriers to communication. It is truly an exciting time for the legal profession."

The Speaker's Panel is exclusively reserved for members of Courtroom Connect's Bar Connect™ Program, a videoconference network for Bar Associations. Bar associations who have videoconferencing or wish to purchase videoconferencing from Courtroom Connect are qualified to join the Bar Connect Program, which includes access to the Speakers Panel, access to a videoconference CLE network, videoconference technical support, discounts on AT&T ISDN services and other related services. Bar associations are adding the Speakers Panel to their current list of services to improve membership recruitment and retention efforts.
