The American Bar Association has convened in New York City for the first time in ten years. The ABA Annual Meeting, which began Wednesday, will primarily be conducted at the midtown Hilton hotel.

But President Linda Klein said she hopes that the attendees will have ample opportunity to “get out of the hotel.” To that end, the organizers have created the new “CLE in the City” series which will be piloted on the premises of over fifty law firms in Manhattan. The ABA will be offering low-cost continuing legal education programs, targeted toward attorneys who have never attended an ABA event before, over the course of the five days of the meeting.
