Speaking Engagement - Were the Experts Stumped?

Frank Steinberg recently participated in a "Stump the Experts" forum for the Somerset County Business Partnership.  The free-form discussion saw a panel of experts fielding questions from the audience.  Frank's presentation focused on employment law and business law issues.

The accountant on the panel was Doug Sonier of Withum, Smith & Brown.  Laurie Murphy of People Are Key, Inc. spoke about HR issues.

All of the panelists, I am happy to report, escaped more or less unscathed.
