New lawyers may be nervous about the debate surrounding alternative legal models, such as limited license legal practitioners, and what it can mean for the future of their practice. Join us and help us close the information gap. Nationally-recognized speaker Ellie Krug will tell us about what types of alternative legal models are being considered, what a "limited license legal practitioner" is, and what gaps these models aim to close in our justice system.  Ms. Krug will also share practical insights about how new lawyers can capitalize now on current gaps by telling us about underutilized niche areas and the benefit of "low bono" services.

The New Lawyers Section Business Meeting with round table discussion will follow the CLE at 6:00 pm.

This informative and timely CLE will be immediately followed by the New Lawyers' Section monthly business meeting where we will debate the official position, if any, the New Lawyers' Section will take with respect to alternative practitioner models. Come to learn and have your voice heard on this vital topic.
