Opting Out: Wokeism in Biglaw and the Rise of Conservative Litigation Boutiques

Austin Lawyers Chapter, Texas Young Lawyers Chapter

Co-sponsored by the Texas Young Lawyers Chapter

Trailblazing civil rights attorney Adam Mortara sits down with the Federalist Society Austin Lawyers Chapter to discuss how wokeism has taken over the largest and most prestigious law firms in the country. The old adage “everyone deserves a lawyer” has been jettisoned for ESG and DEI—cases and clients that go against the flow are fated to become flotsam. Mr. Mortara will discuss his experience working for a prestigious Chicago law firm, his decision to start his own practice, the future for conservatives in the legal market, and the long-term prospects of conservative litigation boutiques.

Featuring:

  • Prof. Adam Mortara, Lecturer in Law, The University of Chicago Law School and Civil and Voting Rights Trial Lawyer, Lawfair LLC

Price:

  • Members $10
  • Non-Members $20

At 6:00 p.m., the reception with drinks and hors d'oeuvres will begin, then the discussion will start at 6:30 p.m. Complimentary valet is included with your ticket.
