** The Mentoring/Member Development committee sponsors LAW's Lean In Circle. Four practice-related circles make up the large Circle.

• Plaintiff's Lawyers
• Defense/Transactional/ Regulatory Lawyers
• Government/Public Interest Lawyers 
• In-House Counsel  

Members of the Circles range from new to the practice of law to seasoned practitioners.

Typical quarterly Circle meetings begin with a large group program followed by breakouts into practice areas for small group discussions, led by a Circle leader.

If you are not a part of a Circle and want to join one, email the LAW office at info@law-nashville.org with your area of practice and find out how to connect with your group.
