New Lawyers Committee

Mission

Like young attorneys themselves, the New Lawyers Committee looks to the future. All activities and programs are designed to assist new lawyers in building successful, rewarding professional lives. The committee takes a comprehensive approach to the practice of law, helping young attorneys acquire all the tools needed to build a successful career; from the substantive knowledge and business sense expected of today's attorney to the sprawling networks, strong friendships and balanced perspectives that make professional growth both possible and rewarding.

A Message from the New Lawyers Committee Chair

“Welcome! The New Lawyers Committee is an active group of young lawyers who are looking to become well-rounded and energetic members of the Columbus Bar Association. Our members come from varied areas of practice but the one thing we all have in common is a desire to become better lawyers. The New Lawyers Committee is here to help you by providing CLEs geared specifically towards "newbies" and lunches with local judges. But we'll also help you wind down - there will be plenty of social networking events at local restaurants and cultural spaces, and many opportunities to participate in service activities in the community. Let us introduce you to the many wonderful things the Columbus Bar has to offer, and to help you become a better lawyer! I look forward to seeing you at our next event.”
