LITIGATION GROUP MEETINGS

AAJ Litigation Groups are voluntary associations of members handling similar cases. The groups reduce the cost of litigation and improve the quality of representation through the sharing of documents, information, and expertise. Some groups conduct business meetings while others present informational programs. Many groups are affiliated with Sections. Most Litigation Group meetings will be held at the El Conquistador Resort and Golden Day Spa and DO NOT award CLE credits. For more information on any group or to inquire about forming a group, visit the AAJ booth located in the Exhibit Hall.
