RPPT Young Lawyers Network Begins

Young Lawyers Network
The ABA Real Property, Probate and Trust Law Section (“the Section”) is proud to announce the establishment of the Young Lawyers Network. The YLN is an ad hoc committee, under the auspices of the Membership Committee, designed to promote young lawyer membership and participation in the Section.

The mission of the ABA Real Property, Probate and Trust Law Section's Young Lawyers Network ("YLN") is to encourage young lawyers’ active involvement in the Section and to increase young lawyer membership and participation in the social and substantive activities of the Section through programming geared towards young lawyers. The YLN general membership will be open to all members of the Section who have been admitted to practice in their first bar within the past eight years or who are less than 36 years old.

The YLN will sponsor its launch event at the 2004 Spring Meeting of the Section in Seattle, including a discussion of the “Top 10” practice tips for young lawyers on Wednesday, May 12, 2004 at 4:00 PM. This event is a great opportunity for young lawyers to meet the leaders of the YLN, the leaders of the Section and fellow young lawyers in the Section.
