New Lawyers

For lawyers who have been practicing 8 or fewer years

The New Lawyers Section of the Dane County Bar Association is a group of attorneys in the Dane County area of Wisconsin who are committed to professional development and community engagement. The NLS helps members bridge the gap between law school and professional practice by hosting events geared toward the needs and interests of new lawyers. NLS plans CLE programs, networking and pro bono events, in addition to volunteer community outreach activities. For additional information, go to the New Lawyers Section, Dane County Bar Association page on Facebook.
