* PRACTICE SUPPORT FOR LITIGATION PROFESSIONALS - A FULL DAY SEMINAR ON AUGUST 23, 2016 *

Thank you to all attendees, panelists and sponsors who made this event a success. With 150+ people representing 30 firms, government agencies, vendors, in attendance, the room was full of energy. This event was an excellent opportunity to bring litigation paralegals and specialists, paralegal managers and coordinators, e-discovery specialists and court managers together to learn and keep current with trends in the industry, refresh knowledge, make decisions to study and sit for different types of certifications available from NFPA, ACEDS and many other resources as well as network with established professionals. All attendees came home with ‘goodie’ bags filled with promotional pens, notepads and other freebies sponsored by our presenters and sponsors. Our special thanks to Kara Buzga, Paralegal Manager at Mayer Brown LLP, who hosted the event. Kara dedicated a lot of time to make this event a smashing success.

We had many surprised faces when raffles were drown through the day. Winners came home with Mets and Jets tickets, gift cards, t-shirts, books, free or discounted membership at NYCPA and free NYCPA event of choice.

*The First Paralegal Coffee & Conversation Round-Table*

The first Paralegal Coffee, & Conversation Round -table was a success!! Even though the table wasn't exactly round - but oblong, and even though the venue was a little on the loud side, the attendees were able to share a bit about themselves and stories. The final group consisted of 3 board members, and 6 attendees. The goal was to acquaint paralegals with each other in an informal way and to impart information - so that we could learn from one another. We all asked questions and wanted opinions of the others. This was a productive meeting and hopefully there will be more.

Thanks to Jessica Mieles, Bill Strachan for aiding Belline Manopla and adding to the event in a meaningful way!
