May Membership Month: Who's Your One?

Who's your one? Good Things Must Be Shared. Refer someone to join DRI and get rewarded.

Did You Know?

DRI Membership pays for itself! A recent DRI survey of active members showed that nearly half of DRI members have given or received referrals and at least 45% of those referrals were worth more than $50k.

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 in your career … and it's too good not to be shared!

That's why we’re asking DRI members "Who's Your One?" during the month of May. We are encouraging members to refer one colleague/peer to join the DRI community by May 31 -- and both the referring member and the new member will be rewarded!*

*To be rewarded, new DRI members must join via the membership application or online and use referral code IM-2023MAY-CLE. New members must indicate the referring DRI member's name in the application.
