GET CONNECTED!

Meet the leaders — the key general counsel and law firm chairs who are participating in PAR’s Diversity & Flexibility Connection — at a special one-day conference. Hear their perspectives on how diversity and flexibility impact client relationships, legal budgets and business development. Network and share your firm’s experiences.

The Connection brought together twelve general counsel and twelve law firm chairs for two meetings where they had frank discussions on the connection between work/life strategies and diversity objectives. This conference will present the best practices and action steps for law departments and law firms that were generated at these meetings.

For PAR members only: Included in the price of your conference ticket will be an invitation to a reception the night before the conference hosted by Dickstein Shapiro LLP exclusively for PAR members who are attending the conference, general counsel and law firm chairs who are participating in the Connection and speakers.
