2025 IADC Annual Meeting

Steptoe & Johnson’s Melissa Matthews will moderate a panel on “Life in the Point Cloud: The Use of 3D Scans in Defending Liability Claims” for the International Association of Defense Counsel’s (IADC) Annual Meeting on July 9, 2025. The IADC is a global legal organization for attorneys who represent corporate and insurance interests. It promotes professional development, networking, and the highest standards of ethics and service among its members.

This panel will cover how 3D data capture tools like laser scanners and drones help experts digitally preserve evidence for litigation, making it easier to show clear, persuasive visual reconstructions to juries in cases like accidents or construction defects. It will feature real case studies and include an interactive 3D scan of the conference room to demonstrate the technology in action.
