Share the Value of DRI Membership and Get Rewarded!

DRI is a global network of civil defense attorneys and in-house counsel you can turn to for professional support and referrals. It's truly one of the best investments you can make to help engage your network and build the DRI community.

That's why we’re asking DRI members to refer your peers to join the DRI community by May 31, 2025 – and both the referring member and the new member will be rewarded!*

*To be rewarded, new DRI members must use the link that you can share with others. New members must indicate the referring DRI member's name in the application.
