The Massachusetts Bar Association's Judicial Administration Section and Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Committee (DEIC) presents a two-part program series on restorative justice. This will be a robust discussion of the restorative justice efforts that are happening within the trial courts on the state and federal level, schools, workplaces, and programs. At its core, restorative justice re-imagines the definition of “justice," substituting “punishment" with “repair.”
The first years of practicing law are a critical time in the development of professional habits and character. To help foster this transition, the fellows of the 2023 MBA’s Leadership Academy invite you to participate in the Transition into Practice Program Series (“TIPs”). The fellows designed the series to provide transitional support to newly admitted attorneys and soon-to-be-graduating law students so that they have the practical skills and judgment necessary to practice at the highest level.
Grab your coffee and join the Massachusetts Bar Association’s Probate Law Section Council on Wednesday mornings for short, focused lessons in the world of probate law and estate planning practice.

“Like so many others, I need to be constantly learning to keep pace with our ever-evolving profession and my go-to source is the MBA. The MBA’s tremendous library of programs in virtually every practice area are scheduled at convenient dates and times and offered throughout the commonwealth. And if I can’t attend in person, I know I can log-in to a webcast or access one of the many archived programs at my convenience. And it is all part of my membership benefits. So I say from my own experience, the MassBar Educates!”
