Join us for the 5th annual BAWLR event. Women lawyers from all practice areas, from both sides of the aisle, mediators, and judges will converge in Northern California for the weekend. This weekend retreat has many opportunities to develop relationships, learn from amazing speakers (including Chief Justice Patricia Guerrero), and enjoy leisure time. We’re still working on the schedule but will share more as we lock in the details.

Don’t miss this extraordinary opportunity to join a community that champions and empowers women lawyers. Tickets are now on sale for March 1-3, 2024. Prepare to embark on a transformative weekend at BAWLR 2024. Let’s rewrite the narrative and shape the legal profession’s future together.
