Celebrating Trailblazing Women Attorneys

Event Description

Online registration is closed. If you would like to register please email award@mnbars.org by 12:00 pm on March 4th.

Join us virtually on March 4 via Zoom for an engaging “rotating roundtable” event celebrating Trailblazing Women Attorneys and Judges! This event is the latest in a series of The Vintage events, which bring together experienced and new lawyers to share stories, learn, and preserve the history of our Bar. All lawyers are encouraged to attend.

Trailblazing women lawyers and judges will share insights about their successes and overcoming adversity. Attendees will hear from multiple speakers in small, rotating breakout room groups for more personalized discussion and Q&A on topics including major successes, bouncing back from a loss, navigating ethical dilemmas, and managing work-life balance.

This year’s event is co-sponsored by the New Lawyers Committees and Sections of the Minnesota State Bar Association, Minnesota Chapter of the Federal Bar Association, Hennepin County Bar Association , Minnesota Women Lawyers (RISE)  and Minnesota Association of Black Lawyers. 1.0 hours of CLE credit to be applied for. Check-in starts at 4:45, with the rotating roundtables starting at 5:00 to 6:00pm. We hope to see you there!
