What a great kick off to the year! More than 100 people attended our September luncheon where Paula Frederick addressed the membership in her official capacity as State Bar General Counsel. Thank you to Paula, and to all who attended. As Paula recognized, the meeting of the DBA for luncheons is a great tradition and one that many bars are abandoning. Please join us at the Oct. 17 luncheon. Superior Court Judge Clarence F. Seeliger will address the membership along with DeKalb County Atlanta Legal Aid Lawyer Angela Riccetti about the history and impact of Legal Aid in our community. This luncheon has been approved for one hour of CLE credit for Professionalism. Recruit a friend to come with you to the luncheon, and make your reservation by following this link.
