The Young Lawyers' Interest Network (YIN) provides networking opportunities for young practitioners living inside and outside the United States. YIN also exists to promote stronger relationships among young lawyer organizations worldwide.
YIN also assists young practitioners with acclimation to the legal profession, whether that may be relocating to a new locale, adjusting to life in the "real" legal world, or providing new cultural insights.
YIN provides its members and the legal community at large with social activities, as part of ABA International meetings and independent events, to meet and to share each other's experience as young legal practitioners.
Most importantly, however, to quote Immediate Past YIN Chair, Marcelo Bombau, "YIN is what its members choose it to be!" So, join us, and make YIN what YOU choose it to be!
