Dinners with Dignitaries

The NHBA New Lawyers Committee hosts a few of these popular Dinner with a Dignitary events each year. These dinners offer a unique opportunity for new lawyers in practice in NH for 5 years or less to enjoy dinner and casual conversation with a judge or other dignitary. There is no cost to register, but each person pays for their own meal. Restaurant information will be shared upon registration for the dinner. Attendance is limited to encourage conversation, so sign up quickly to reserve your spot!

Dinner with Hon. Polly L. Hall
Judge, New Hampshire Circuit Court

Thursday, May 22
5:30-7:30 PM
Portsmouth, NH

To me, this event was both educational and rewarding. As I was recently admitted to the bar, my interaction with judges is minimal and generally quite stressful. Being able to have a conversation with the judge about his life and career as well as my developing career was invaluable. It increased my comfort level in court as it reminded me judges are people, too. This is a rare opportunity to familiarize yourself with the judges across New Hampshire and listen to any career advice they may have. I would recommend any new lawyer attend future events whether their practice takes them into the courtroom or not.”
