2021 Young Lawyers Seminar

General Information

DRI’s Young Lawyers Seminar "Rising to the Occasion – Better Advocates and Counselors" will take place June 23–25, 2021 at The Marquette Hotel in Minneapolis, MN.

This year’s seminar will help new lawyers and law students reset, realign, and refocus on becoming a better person, a better team member, and a better advocate for themselves and their clients. Don’t miss you chance to:

• Uncover issues related to racial and gender equity and inclusivity, including how decision-makers at every level can effect meaningful change in the legal industry.
• Hear from Minnesota’s federal and state judiciary on the State’s response to the COVID-19 pandemic and how those lessons will shape the future of the practice of law.
• Learn the business-building skills of personalizing the corporate defendant and impressing in-house counsel.
• Network with your colleagues in Wednesday afternoon’s Enneagram Workshop, where we will equip you for personal transformation and greatly improved working relationships.
