ATLANTA, Sept. 30 /PRNewswire/ -- Powell, Goldstein, Frazer & Murphy LLP
will be co-sponsoring a seminar with BDO Seidman, LLP on the Sarbanes-Oxley
Act of 2002 entitled, "Sarbanes-Oxley: The New Rules of Engagement." The
seminar will take place on Tuesday, October 8, 2002 at the Ritz-Carlton in
downtown Atlanta.
This timely seminar will address issues such as the nuts and bolts of
corporate governance reforms, disclosure and financial controls, compensation
issues, and corporate accountability and criminal standards. Featured
speakers include Joe Goodwin of The Goodwin Group and Lee Graul from BDO
Seidman, LLP. Powell Goldstein partners Bob Barker, Joel Berl, and Eliot
Robinson will also be featured speakers.
"Much has been written summarizing the substantive requirements of the new
legislation and the pending rules that have been announced by the SEC and the
major stock exchanges. However, little practical, 'how to comply' advice has
been provided. We have assembled a strong line-up of leading practitioners
and thought leaders to provide insightful analysis and address today's most
frequently-asked question: 'What should we be doing now?'" said Rick Miller,
seminar chairperson and a partner in Powell Goldstein's Business Transactions
group. The program is designed for senior level executives and board members
of public companies. Registration will begin at 8:00 AM with the program
continuing until 12:00 PM. For more information on this seminar or to
