Committees

Participation in Lawyers Conference Committees allows members to participate in judicial reform, court delay reduction, civil justice reform and community-based justice efforts with the support of the ABA. The Lawyers Conference encourages members to become involved and to bring your ideas and concerns to these committees so that the objectives and interests of all members can be heard, understood and incorporated into Lawyers Conference proposals, projects and initiatives.
