The Business Law Section Fall Meeting will be held on September 18-20, 2025 at the Sheraton Centre Toronto Hotel, and the Section is pleased to invite law students to join. Meeting registration is complimentary for law students!
Students able join in person are invited to participate in the Law Student Scholar Program. This program is designed to help law students navigate Section Meetings and connect with practicing business lawyers to network and learn more about a career in business law. Participants in the Law Student Scholar Program receive:
- Virtual Orientation Meetings. The Law Student Committee is hosting two virtual orientations prior to the Fall Meeting, aimed at preparing students for and enhancing their conference experience. Additionally, students unable to attend in person can join committee meetings, including the Law Student Committee Meeting and Young Lawyer Committee Meeting, virtually.
- Networking Opportunities. Students are invited to pre-meeting Zoom calls to get introduced to the Section, the Law Student Committee, and prepare for the Fall Meeting. Students will also participate in speed networking with accomplished professionals and attend networking receptions.
- Professional recognition. After completing the program requirements, each scholar will receive a certificate recognizing their participation in the program. Scholars are also encouraged to list involvement in this program on their resume.
- Enhanced law school experience. Scholars will receive continued opportunities for involvement in the ABA Business Law Section to help them stand out from their peers.
The program has been designed with law students’ busy schedules in mind. Required events can be completed in 1-2 days and students are invited to attend as many days of the meeting as they’d like! While the Fall Meeting has a virtual component, students will be required to attend at least 1 day in person to meet the program requirements.
To participate in the Law Student Scholar Program, students must sign up by September 17. Follow this link to learn more and sign up today.
