Members of the Massachusetts bar should aim for the
highest level of professionalism in relationships with clients, colleagues,
parties, administrative entities and the courts. 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.
Our final session of the six-part TIPs series will cover "Practical Tips for
New Lawyers."
All programs are free and will help ensure a smooth entry into the practice
of law.
This webinar hosted was using Zoom.
