Welcome to the ABA Annual Meeting
Dear Colleagues:
On behalf of the American Bar Association, it is a pleasure to invite you to attend the August 5 - August 10, 2010 Annual Meeting. We are pleased to return to San Francisco, a city with a robust bar community that offers world-class restaurants, shopping, and other attractions.
The ABA’s sections, divisions, and other entities are developing more than 220 CLE programs that will help you improve your professional skills and expertise. There will be abundant opportunities to network with lawyers and judges from around the world. The meeting will also feature the world’s largest legal EXPO, providing an array of goods and services pertaining to the practice of law.
The Opening Assembly will be held Saturday, August 7, at 5:30 p.m. at the Herbst Theatre. The President’s Reception will immediately follow at the San Francisco City Hall. It promises to be a superb evening. We acknowledge Bay-area lawyers Joseph M. Alioto, John L. McDonnell, Jr., Judith A. Miller and Mark I. Schickman for their important assistance and advice during the planning of the 2010 Annual Meeting.
Your participation in the 2010 Annual Meeting is important to our profession’s development and our Association’s growth.
