Conroy Appointed Chair of ABA Subcommittee


BRIDGEWATER, NJ – Attorney Robert Conroy of the healthcare law firm of Kern Augustine Conroy & Schoppmann, P.C. (www.drlaw.com) has been appointed Chair of the Programming and CLE Sub-Committee of the Health Law Litigation Committee of the American Bar Association’s Litigation Section.

The American Bar Association (ABA) is the largest voluntary professional association in the world, with more than 400,000 members.  The organization provides law school accreditation, continuing legal education, information about the law, programs to assist lawyers and judges in their work, and initiatives to improve the legal system for the public.

"This is a tremendous opportunity to play a major role in enhancing the ABA’s educational programs,” said Conroy. “One of our main objectives is to attract national experts to educate lawyers so that they can better represent their clients.”  Conroy focuses his practice on litigation of complex medical and healthcare matters.

“As a prominent health law litigator Mr. Conroy has vast experience that few other lawyers in the nation possess.  His willingness to share these experiences is testament to his lifelong passion for the law and its role in the healthcare delivery system.  As the laws involving healthcare become more and more complex, the need for a continuing exchange of information among healthcare attorneys is essential.  The ABA could not have selected a better person to lead that effort,” according to Steven Kern, Esq., president of Kern Augustine.  “Our firm’s lawyers spend hundreds of hours each year educating lawyers, doctors, and other healthcare professionals.  It’s an important opportunity for us to contribute to healthcare community.”

Conroy is admitted to practice law in New York, New Jersey, California, Florida, Pennsylvania, and the District of Columbia. He is the founding director and past chair of the New Jersey State Bar Association’s Health and Hospital Law Section.
