This seminar transcends many areas of law, providing a crucial skillset to help you become a more organized, effective, and respected attorney.

Robert’s Rules of Order is more than just a handy guide for running meetings—businesses, nonprofits, local governments, school boards, and homeowners’ associations alike rely on it as a powerful tool to maintain discipline and structure.

This program provides an essential primer and refresher on Robert’s Rules for every lawyer, especially those who counsel New Jersey corporate boards and public entities. As required by statute, municipal public entities reorganize and meet during the first week of January. These reorganization sessions, as well as upcoming corporate meetings, require attorneys to have a functional, working knowledge of parliamentary procedure.

Additional program details will be announced soon.
