On Friday, November 12, The State Bar of Texas and TexasBarCLE will host “Success Strategies and Key Lessons for Young Lawyers.” The seminar is a one-day program to provide young lawyers with tips for a successful career. The seminar will be at Cityplace Conference Center, 2711 North Haskell, Dallas, from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m, with a networking breakfast at 7:45 a.m. and a luncheon at 12 p.m.
This non-mandatory course is designed to complement the mandatory four-hour “Guide to the Basics of Law Practice” course offered by the Texas Center for Legal Ethics and Professionalism. The course will review free legal resources lawyers never knew they had, negotiation techniques, information for lawyers starting their own practice, avoiding disciplinary action, and information about what lawyers’ paralegals can do.
Kim J. Askew, K&L Gates LLP, will present “How to Succeed in Your First Trial or Transaction,” and Lisa S. Richardson, Richardson & Cechura, PLLC and Gindi E. Vincent, Pillsbury Winthrop Shaw Pittman, will present “Striking a Balance: How to Salvage Your Life and Sanity as You Strive to Get Ahead at Work.” Robert Dubose, Alexander Dubose & Townsend LLP, will present “Legal Writing for the Rewired Brain” at the luncheon.
