NCBA 2018 ANNUAL MEETINGJUNE 21-24, WILMINGTON

A message from NCBA President Caryn Coppedge McNeill:

Any number of things have the potential to divide us as a profession – our different locations, practice settings, types of practice, etc. The NCBA transcends all that. It unites us. And nowhere does it do that more compellingly than at our Annual Meeting.

Our 2018 Annual Meeting will take place in Wilmington this June. We’ll celebrate the best among us, explore the issues we face collectively as a profession regarding the future delivery of legal services, and enjoy each other’s company. Our tradition of meeting annually is time-honored, but our programs are fresh and new. A special value this year is the 6.0 credits of CLE and President’s Luncheon ticket included with registration.

We would be delighted if you would join us. Please register today. The future is HERE!
