For our pilot episode we’re digging into a topic that can be overwhelming to anyone: Networking and Getting involved. Even in a less competitive field, having connections and being seen can make all the difference in the world when it comes to building or advancing your career. In the field of law, it is doubly important. We interview leaders of our Barrister’s section as well as directors of some of LACBA’s Pro Bono projects.

Here at the Los Angeles County Bar Association we know that being an attorney is a whole lot more than practicing law. Lawyers encounter unique stressors and situations that often arise out of nowhere.
We’ve put together this podcast so that you can begin to get a handle on the legal profession before you’re out on your own.
Our Barrister’s Section, comprised of attorneys 36 and younger, or with no more than 5 years in practice, was the perfect place to start as we began interviewing a selection of our active members.
We’ve collaged the interviews together in order to give you topic based episodes, that share stories and experiences of attorneys that will be a benefit to you.
