UP YOUR PERSUASION GAME: THE SCIENCE OF EFFECTIVE LEGAL WRITING

Want to take your legal writing to the next level? In just one short hour, Professor Susie Salmon will outline several research-based tips that will help you transform lackluster prose into captivating advocacy. Professor Salmon directs the legal-writing program at the University of Arizona, James E. Rogers College of Law and writes a frequent column on legal writing for Arizona Attorney Magazine. Before entering academia full-time, Professor Salmon was a commercial litigator at firms in Tucson and Los Angeles.

*The State Bar of Arizona does not approve or accredit CLE activities for the Mandatory Continuing Legal Education requirement. This activity may qualify for up to 1.0 hour toward your annual CLE requirement for the State Bar of Arizona, including 0 hours of professional responsibility.

Attending the monthly luncheon at the YWCA this month? Please bring unopened packages of pads or tampons to donate to the YWCA’s Project Period. There is a collection box in the lobby of the YWCA. You may be thinking, “Hey AWLA – why is the YWCA collecting pads and tampons?” Well, they’re expensive. They’re not covered by food stamps. They’re taxed. Please help out people with periods who cannot afford to purchase them. For more information, click here.

Looking for an excuse to clean out your closet? We’ve got you covered. “Your Sister’s Closet” at the YWCA helps underprivileged women get interview and job ready. Bring your professional clothing to the luncheons (seriously, so easy – you’re already going to be there) and make a difference in our community. Don’t have any clothes you’re ready to part with (trust me, I get it)? Feel free to make a monetary donation. For more information, click here. Want to learn more about the YWCA and/or other ways you can get involved? Feel free to contact Jennifer Espino at Jennifer.Espino@tonation-nsn.gov.

There IS such a thing as a free lunch, at least for guests of current AWLA members!
