The Employment Law Institute is a space for the leading legal minds involved with labor and employment law, as it pertains to the LGBTQ+ community, to share ideas and network. Participants will share their collective wisdom and discuss cutting-edge legal strategies. To create an environment that encourages the free flow of information, registration is limited. The meeting will be closed and the proceedings will not be recorded. The Employment Law Institute is not open to law students.
The LGBT Bar is no longer requiring Institute registration forms for interested attendees. You will be able to sign up for this Institute on the 2021 Lavender Law® advance registration form.
Please check back next year for the 2021 schedule. The Institute’s 2020 schedule is available below for reference.
