On Saturday, February 25, 2012, from 9:00 am to 4:00 pm, we will be hosting the 3rd Annual Legally Asian 2012 to encourage college and high school students to pursue a law degree. It will be held at UC Hastings School of Law located at 198 McAllister Street, San Francisco, CA.
The goal of the program is to expose college and high school students to law school, explain career options available with a law degree, and discuss current issues affecting the Asian and Pacific Islander communities. We will feature distinguished panelists who have used their law degrees in a variety of ways. The panels will cover legal careers in the public and private sector (i.e. firm attorneys, public interest attorneys, judges, in-house counsel) as well as career paths outside the “traditional” practice of law.
During breakout sessions, Bay Area law students will share their experience with all aspects of law school, from admission through graduation. All attendees will be provided with a packet that will include tips on the admissions process (i.e. LSAT, personal statement, financial aid, etc.).
The program is free. Breakfast and lunch will be provided.
All interested students should register at
