SUMMARY:Achieving Amicable Settlement in Gray Divorce Using Reverse Mortgages
DESCRIPTION:Achieving Amicable Settlement in Gray Divorce Using Reverse Mortgages  Learn more at https://www.meckbar.org/?pg=MCBCalendar&evAction=showDetail&eid=351004  Description:    This program has been submitted for 1.0 General credit hours in North Carolina and South Carolina (webinar credit).  This CLE is hosted by the MBA Family Law Section. Section Members can register for a discounted rate of $30.  Program Overview  This webinar is designed to help attorneys understand how HECM (Home Equity Conversion Mortgage) reverse mortgages can be used as a practical tool in later-life divorce and retirement planning\, particularly when the home is the largest asset and both parties need workable housing and cash-flow outcomes . The session frames “silver divorce” as a growing trend and explains why divorce later in life can materially strain retirement security (higher costs\, separate housing\, and reduced wealth) .   You will learn: what a HECM is\, how it works\, and the consumer protections/guardrails built into the program; as well as how the loan mechanics translate into retirement cash-flow and settlement planning strategies.

SUMMARY:ERISA Subrogation in Personal Injury and Workers' Compensation Claims
DESCRIPTION:ERISA Subrogation in Personal Injury and Workers’ Compensation Claims  Learn more at https://www.meckbar.org/?pg=MCBCalendar&evAction=showDetail&eid=350890  Description:    This program has been submitted for 1.0 General credit hours in North Carolina and South Carolina (webinar credit).  This CLE is hosted by the MBA Civil Litigation and Labor & Employment Sections. Section members can register for a discounted rate of $15.  Program Overview  When a personal injury/workers’ compensation case is settled\, or getting close to settlement\, the finish line may be further away than one may think. In the year 2026\, ERISA health plans\, and their recovery agents\, are increasingly pursuing aggressive reimbursement and subrogation claims against settlement proceeds\, creating high stakes disputes that can dramatically impact injured plaintiffs\, their counsel\, litigation tactics\, and recovery strategies. This CLE will explore the evolving landscape of the ERISA reimbursement arena\, the powerful remedies available to ERISA plans\, and the critical distinctions and tactics that can determine whether an ERISA plan’s claim succeeds\, is wilted\, or entirely fails.   Through a practical examination of leading statutes\, regulations\, case law\, and practical strategies\, attendees will gain valuable insight which will allow them to identify\, evaluate\, and challenge ERISA reimbursement claims. This program will provide the tools needed to navigate one of the most complex and consequential intersections between insurer subrogation claims and personal injury/workers’ compensation litigation.   Join us for a timely and engaging discussion on the continuing battle over settlement dollars\, and who ultimately gets to keep them.  Speakers  Zachary D.

SUMMARY:The Biology of Stress in Legal Practice: Cognitive Performance\, Judgment\, and Decision-Making Under Pressure
DESCRIPTION:The Biology of Stress in Legal Practice: Cognitive Performance\, Judgment\, and Decision-Making Under Pressure  Learn more at https://www.meckbar.org/?pg=MCBCalendar&evAction=showDetail&eid=350999  Description:    This program has been submitted for 1.0 PWB credit hours in North Carolina and 1.0 SA/MH South Carolina (webinar credit).  Program Overview  Legal professionals operate in environments where cognitive clarity\, sound judgment\, and composed communication are not aspirational qualities—they are professional requirements. Yet the physiological reality of chronic stress systematically undermines every one of them.   Presented by Tish Saint Mary\, Pharmacist\, this session examines the biology of the stress response and its direct impact on attorney performance. Participants will understand precisely how sustained high-pressure work alters memory\, attention\, communication\, and decision-making—and learn evidence-based\, immediately applicable tools to restore regulation and protect professional effectiveness.   This is not a mindfulness session. It is clinical education grounded in pharmacology and neuroscience\, translated into practical tools attorneys can use on the day of a deposition\, negotiation\, trial\, or difficult client conversation.   By the end of this session\, participants will be able to:   •    Explain how the physiological stress response alters memory\, focus\, communication\, and legal reasoning   •    Identify how nervous system dysregulation drives reactive decision-making and reduced performance under high-stakes pressure   •    Recognize patterns of stress contagion within legal teams and their downstream effects on culture\, communication\, and client service   •    Apply real-time regulation strategies—including controlled breathwork\, grounding\, and pause-response protocols—to maintain clarity during demanding legal work   •    Evaluate how physiological regulation supports ethical judgment\, professional responsibility\, and client outcomes   •    Develop a personal pre-performance protocol for high-pressure legal events including trial\, negotiation\, deposition\, and client interaction  Speaker  Tish Saint Mary\, Licensed Clinical Pharmacist   LinkedIn   Tish Saint Mary is a licensed clinical pharmacist with over 25 years of experience in high-stakes\, decision-driven clinical environments. Her work translates pharmacology and neuroscience into practical performance education. She does not teach wellness theory. She teaches attorneys what their nervous system is doing under pressure—and what to do about it.      The views and opinions of MBA CLEs are not necessarily those of the Mecklenburg Bar Association/26th Judicial District Bar.
