New Lawyers Committee

“We would like to welcome all of the newer members to the New Hampshire Bar. The New Lawyers Committee serves as a resource to all newer members of the NH Bar, whether you are a recent law school graduate or a seasoned attorney practicing in a new jurisdiction…We are always excited to hear ideas from other newer lawyers. Please reach out to us if you are interested in getting involved.”

Dinner with a Judge program: March 24, 202 DWJ is canceled.

The NHBA New Lawyers Committee hosts the popular Dinner with a Judge series. This is a unique opportunity for new lawyers in the NHBA community to become acquainted with a member of the judiciary in a relaxed setting. The event is kept intentionally small to allow for conversation and for each attendee to get to know their peers, the New Lawyers Committee representative and the judge in attendance.
