NALS, the association for legal professionals, will hold its 2021 National Conference at the Sheraton Detroit Metro Airport from September 16-18. The theme of the conference this year is "Driving the Soul of Legal Professionals," and the association is excited to return to in-person education and networking.
An expert line-up of presenters is set to deliver 19 sessions with 11 CLE credits available for legal support professionals across a range of current topics including: diversity, equity, and inclusion; leadership skills; immigration issues; criminal justice; and unauthorized practice of law.
This year's return to the in-person format also provides numerous opportunities for members to reconnect with old friends and make new ones in a safe and accessible setting. The schedule kicks off with a "Hello Detroit" reception on Thursday evening and will close with a Motown Revue Party with DJ Exquisite on Saturday evening.
In addition to the education and networking programs, the event will include an exhibit hall of legal support service providers. Attendees can also look forward to the NALS Foundation "sweeps"-an exciting raffle and silent auction fundraiser with great prizes.
The Michigan state and Detroit local chapters are actively planning this year's event. Each group has been an active part of NALS for over 50 years and they are excited to bring both national and local legal experts to the conference.
Legal support professionals who are not members of NALS are invited to attend, as well as to consider joining NALS, to advance their professionalism.
