Established in 1977 by LAW founder Susan McGannon, the New Admittees' Breakfast is one of LAW's signature events of the year and an important one for the Nashville Legal Community! Carrying on tradition, LAW will hold the Breakfast on November 4, 2025, the same morning that the Tennessee Supreme Court holds its swearing in ceremonies for the successful bar takers of the 2025 Tennessee Bar Exam. Also per tradition, the Breakfast is FREE for the New Admittees' and invited dignitaries. Your registration will help with this 48th New Admittees’ Breakfast a success!
LAW is honored to be hosting this inspiring event to celebrate the achievements of those entering the legal profession and connect with members of the Tennessee Supreme Court Justices, other members of the judiciary, local bar dignitaries, elected officials, and LAW members.
The plated breakfast includes avocado toast to start, a classic breakfast entrée, pastries, juice, water, and coffee.
Time Between Events
We have heard concerns about people getting from the Breakfast to the Millennium Maxwell House for the swearing in ceremony. We are coordinating with the Tennessee Supreme Court and with Grand Hyatt to ensure that everyone will make it with plenty of time to get settled for their big moment! Millenium Maxwell House is only an 8- to 11-minute drive, and there will be a full hour between the two events. Grand Hyatt has assured that their valet team is top notch and they will have a full staff to get people on their way quickly when the Breakfast is over.
Parking
Grand Hyatt-Nashville offers valet parking, which will be $25 per vehicle. You will be provided a sticker at registration to get the $25 rate and will pay at the valet window when you depart. Also, there are other self-park lots nearby if you prefer not to valet.
General Admission – $75 *Reservations are still open, but dietary restrictions for registrations after 10/24/25 may not be able to be accommodated.
