Our mission at the International Section of the New York State Bar Association (NYSBA) is to bring together international lawyers through global meetings, topical programs, mentorship opportunities, publications, writing competition, and much more. We have over 60 chapters across the globe, and dozens of committees.

The COVID-19 pandemic is presenting challenges, but our mission remains the same. And the Section having embraced the challenges, our global community is stronger than ever. Along with the other groups comprising NYSBA, we are planning our first-ever virtual annual meeting, for Jan. 27, 2021, from 8 a.m. – 12 p.m., EST. The program will include two international CLE topics:

  • “Cross Border Litigation. When we need the most from our allies around the world: Best practices and recommendations.”
  • “A Breath of Fresh Air: 2020′s Impact on Diversity, Equity and Inclusion.”
