Moreover, multiple Attorney General offices often coordinate their efforts to achieve important results.

Description

Young conservative lawyers may often feel that they need to hide their political and philosophical beliefs to find success in the law.  But today’s world requires courage, demonstrated on a daily basis. Our panelists, reflecting diverse industries and backgrounds, will discuss their views on what constitutes legal courage and how they’ve navigated challenging legal environments while holding different roles in Big Law, in-house, and in government. They will share their perspectives on how young conservatives can manage challenging ideological dynamics in the legal profession while still remaining true to their deeply-held beliefs. They will also share occasions when they’ve confronted adversity in their professional and personal lives, whether it has meant a career change, taking on an unpopular cause or client, or shifting professional and personal priorities. 

Featuring:

• Athie Livas, Associate, Cooper & Kirk 
• Chad Meredith, Of Counsel, Squire Patton Boggs
• Matt Simpson, Local Attorney
• Moderator: Carmine Iaccarino, Member, Sturgill, Turner, Barker & Moloney, PLLC
