The MWL Equity Committee is pleased to present:
"Women Attorneys in the News: Understanding and Engaging with the Media."
In its effort to promote a more diverse and inclusive image of attorneys in the news media and across the general community, this seminar is designed to support women attorneys in navigating the complicated and sometimes mysterious world of the news media and to position them to become solid and reliable contacts journalists turn to for depth and perspective. The program content will also provide practical tools to assist women attorneys in effectively and strategically communicating their message. Unique ethical issues and conflicts for lawyers interested in engaging with the news media will also be addressed.
MWL is pleased to welcome seminar presenters Trisha Volpe, an Emmy-award winning journalist and attorney in the Minneapolis office of Barnes & Thornburg LLP, and Bob McNaney, Senior Vice President at PadillaCRT.
