WHAT THEY SAY
I've been able to grow both professionally and personally within the Section in an environment where you can also have fun. It meets in great locations too so it has everything rolled into one.
-Deborah Enix-Ross, New York, NY
The Section is the best resource I have encountered for current information on international transactional and trade-related legal issues. The materials available from the Section, as well as the professional contacts I have made with fellow members, have been invaluable for my work on cases.
-Timothy Ashby, Seattle, WA
I am a first year law student, and I have always been interested in international law. The reason I have joined the International Law Section is to assist me with deciding which area of international law I will choose to practice in the future.
-Genevieve Whitaker, Tampa, FL
Being active in the Section gives me access to programs, publications, and contacts necessary for my daily legal practice but in such an enjoyable way that it does not feel like a professional obligation.
