LAWYER LEADERSHIP INSTITUTE
There are still a couple positions available for the third exemplary Lawyer Leadership Institute to be held on May 16-18, 2014, at the Stonewall Resort near Weston.
Participation in the Institute is limited to twelve newer lawyers (admitted to the practice of law for ten years or less) who will have the opportunity to learn from outstanding members of the judiciary and the legal profession regarding education and professional training that will enable them to become leaders in the legal profession, in their communities and in the State. They will receive expert presentations on service skills, leadership traits, professionalism and civil discourse through participation in interactive sessions, networking opportunities and interpersonal relationship building in an informal atmosphere.
The first two LLI events have been overwhelmingly successful with participants’ comments such as:

Very Informative.
Really enjoyed the ability to interact with fellow participants and speakers.
Also enjoyed the small size of the group.
A great experience.
Appropriate topics for young lawyers.
Perfect mixture of speaking times, breaks and free time.

The cost remains at $499 per person, which includes two nights lodging at Stonewall Resort, five meals, and all materials, as well as twelve hours of approved continuing legal education credits, with at least three hours of legal ethics credits.
Please contact the WV Bar Foundation TODAY to reserve one of the final places——Tom Tinder—(304)-343-9823, tom@wvbarfoundation.org or WV Bar Foundation, P. O. Box 4845, Charleston, WV 25364.
