The Federal Bar Association, Eastern District of Michigan Chapter, along with the U.S. District Court will present the 46th Annual New Lawyers Seminar online via Zoom on Tuesday and Wednesday, January 25-26.
At the virtual "New Lawyers Seminar: Navigating Your Way in State & Federal Court," attendees will receive practice tips and real-world advice about law, procedure and strategy from Michigan's top lawyers and judges.
Cost for this two day webinar is $85. Registration fee includes presentation materials and a one-year local chapter membership.
New Lawyers Seminar participants will also have the opportunity to participate in a mass swearing-in ceremony held during the seminar and be admitted to practice before the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan. This opportunity will be open only to individuals who register for the New Lawyer's Seminar. Participants must apply separately for admission to the federal court and to participate in the swearing-in ceremony. New Lawyers Seminar registrants who indicate during the online registration process that they wish to participate in the mass swearing-in ceremony will be sent information on how to submit their application. Registrants who signed up after the cut-off for the mass swearing in can still get sworn in by going to the court's website (www.mied.uscourts.gov) and following the instructions provided there.
This is a two day event. There is no option to register for one day only. Information will be sent out after registration on how to register for the mass swearing-in.
