Virginia lawyers serving the public good

Bridge the Gap 2010

Wednesday March 10 - Thursday March 11 , 2010

Cosponsored with the Young Lawyers Division of The Virginia Bar Association

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Are you:
• A new lawyer? (New lawyers save $50 - see below)
• Expanding into a different area of law?
• Returning to practice after a hiatus?

Then you need this seminar. You will get:
• Candid advice (or, as one attendee called it, "straight talk")
• Amazing publications deals

For the first time ever, check out our reduced-price registration option!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Having graduated from law school, you know legal theory. But, what about the "how to …"?

For whatever reason - maybe you're a recent graduate, maybe you haven't been practicing law, maybe you're switching specialties - you don't have the hands-on experience you need to succeed. Sign up for the one seminar this year that will jump-start your new career.

A Variety of Registration Options Include:
• Up to 12.0 MCLE hours, including 1.0 hour of Ethics credit
• The option to purchase the entire handbook, The Virginia Lawyer: A Deskbook for Practitioners (with more than 150 forms on CD-ROM and 2010 supp.), at a significantly reduced price
• 25% discount on all Virginia CLE handbooks purchased on-site
• Lunch each day
• Important networking opportunities

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
IT'S UP TO YOU

We've scheduled a transactions day (Wednesday) and a trials day (Thursday). You can register for either one or both.

For the first time ever, attendees also have a choice between two different registration fees:
• A regular registration fee that includes our best-selling handbook, The Virginia Lawyer; or
• A reduced-price registration that includes only selected chapters from The Virginia Lawyer, which will be used as course materials for the seminar.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
LUNCH

On Wednesday, dine with local clerk(s) of the court. On Thursday, share a meal with a judge or experienced trial attorney.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
UNBEATABLE VALUE

If you sign up for both days, your tuition includes two continental breakfasts, two lunches, two full days of instruction, a 25% discount on Virginia CLE handbooks, and 12.0 MCLE credits. The regular cost for this package would be more than $700.

In addition, lawyers admitted after September 1, 2008, are eligible for a $50 discount on the registration fee!

  • CLE Credit Comments: MCLE Credits: 12.0 Ethics Credits Included: 1.0
