Getting Involved

Young lawyers who would like to become active members of the CBA should consider joining the Young Lawyers' Section in their Branch. These groups are always looking for new members to attend and help organize local events, including wine and cheese receptions with senior lawyers and judges, fund raising for local charities, and discussions and speakers on issues of interest to young lawyers.

For more information on what’s going on in your Branch, please contact any of the YL-CBA Executive and/or Directorate members. We look forward to meeting you!
