Women Fellows Luncheon

Thursday October 24 12:00-2:30 pm

At each Annual Meeting, the American College of Trial Lawyers hosts a Thursday luncheon in the federal judicial district in which the meeting is held. Women Fellow meeting attendees and women federal judges who sit in that district are invited to attend. In addition, the judges are asked to invite two young women who are aspiring to be trial lawyers. This year's event will be hosted by the Hon. Laura Taylor Swain, Chief Judge of the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York.

The luncheon provides women Fellows an opportunity to meet and mentor talented young lawyers who are developing trial skills and to inspire in them adherence to the College's standards of ethical conduct, integrity, professionalism and collegiality.

Please confirm your attendance when you register online for the Annual Meeting.

Cost is $250 which includes reception and plated lunch.
