The New Lawyers Section strives to provide our members opportunities to get involved in Maine's legal community and their communities at large.
​
Join us for an upcoming event or contact us for more information!
​
See below information on the section's three primary focus areas: networking events, community service and professional development.
The NLS organizes and hosts a variety of events to give new lawyers the opportunity to interact with one another and with more senior members of the bar. Events include firm-sponsored cocktail hours, Sea Dogs games, bowling, and happy hours.
We also work to enhance the role of the lawyer in the community through various public service projects, including volunteering for the Campaign for Justice, professional clothing drives, nature trail clean-ups and Habitat for Humanity build days.
We connect new lawyers with experienced lawyers, judges, and members of the community through brown bag lunch events, mentorship opportunities, CLEs, and other educational outreach programs.
