| WHAT YOU WILL
LEARN: |
|
Becoming an attorney is just the
beginning. This program prepares you for
what’s next: |
- What are firms looking for in an
associate?
- What is expected of you as a
professional?
- How can you make sure you never get a
call from Attorney Regulation?
- What trial tactics should you know about
before you ever step into court?
- How can you write effectively to get
results for your client?
- What should you do (and avoid) when
addressing the courts?
| |
| . | In this economy, it’s more
important than ever to
be able to hit the ground running. Law school
prepares you to think like a lawyer, but it
doesn’t always prepare you to actually
be a lawyer.
If you’re a young lawyer or a recent grad,
you’re probably just beginning to learn there’s
a lot you don’t know… yet.
This conference will get you on the right
track and allow you to provide your clients with
the best service you can, whether you’re
navigating your new role as an associate,
tackling your first trial, or filing your first
brief.
When you arrive at the conference, look
around. You’ll be surrounded by the future of
Colorado’s legal community. We understand how
important this is so we build in networking
breaks throughout the day to let you start
building the relationships that are vital to a
successful legal career. You’ll also get
a free pass to a post-conference networking
event, which includes a screening of Class Action, an ethics
presentation by DBA President John Baker,
refreshments and more
networking!
