$700.00 – VIP Attorney or Doctor Ticket
$200.00 –Staff Ticket
$500.00 – VIP Staff Ticket

The only music festival-themed conference, Law-Di-Gras is unlike any other conference you have attended. Their goal is to bridge the gap between doctors and lawyers and educate both parties on chronic pain syndromes, spine information, and ultimately how to proceed best when handling challenging personal injury cases to receive the best litigation result. It is hands down one of the best personal injury educational legal conferences you can attend, where you can network with all sides – the plaintiff bar, defense bar, and the medical field.

An attendee last year Austin Kurtz said, “Law-Di-Gras is a premier event for all lawyers interested in growing their personal brand and having a good time while you are doing it. Hearing from some of the country’s greatest legal minds… followed by a concert by Ice Cube, are you kidding me!? There is no event around like Law-Di-Gras.”

This concert is a three-day event presented by the Ortho Spine Injury Association and put on by Bob Simon, Teresa Diep, Sanjay Ghosh, and their amazing teams. Even better, you can feel good knowing that all the proceeds will be donated to a nonprofit charity. Collaborate with amazing industry professionals for a good cause!

In addition to the event, they will be hosting a golf and costume party on October 24 to raise additional awareness for Weston Wayne’s Warriors Foundation — helping families fight childhood cancer. Assemble your team of four players, choose your costumes, and hit some hole-in-ones, or try. Just be on the lookout for the mysterious Yeti!

With over 16,000 attendees since 2018, this event gets better and better every year. In 2022, Crisp gave away three luxury cars to Summit attendees — including Michael’s very own Tesla — and we can’t wait to see what they’ve got in store for the Crisp Coach clients who will be in attendance this year. In 2023, by making the conference for members-only they were able to skip the introductions and get right into a more focused, advanced level of content specifically tailored to the attorneys in attendance.

If you’re ready to up your game, apply to join the Crisp Coach program and get ready to experience a conference that separates itself drastically from the competition. You won’t ever go to another conference like this again, so make sure you’re eligible to be there in 2024.
