Let’s Hang Out!

By Jake Epstein

The NCBA has been hard at work during this pandemic to bring current information, resources, practice tips, professional vitality publications, and wellness seminars to its members and the public, while also advocating strongly for the legal profession in North Carolina. May was NCBA Member Appreciation Month, which featured free workshops through the Center for Practice Management. As new members are entering and graduating law school, passing the Bar, and becoming members of the legal profession and the NCBA, we have started holding New Member Receptions.

Even though we cannot get together in person right now, we can still hang out! Indeed, one of the things that our Association does best and our members enjoy the most is associating. The NCBA is the home for those in, or entering, the legal profession in North Carolina. Through the NCBA, you can meet your fellow lawyers, judges, paralegals, and law students to discuss how to be better at what you do, expand your options, serve the profession and the public, grow your network, and have some fun. This is the power of association.

Beginning Wednesday, June 10, from 4 to 5 p.m., the NCBA Membership Committee is hosting a series of online discussions, “Mingling with Membership.” These are free events open to all members to connect, or reconnect, with your fellow members. Join us for as many of these as you like and grab a drink if you are so inclined. Moderators will start the conversation and then open it up for all to join in. We encourage you to attend by video as well as audio and are looking forward to getting together with you!
