MISSION

The Young Lawyer’s Section (YLS), of which there is no age limit to join, offers numerous opportunities to participate in activities to network and meet other lawyers, interact with the judiciary, and give back to our community through philanthropic projects and services. The YLS accomplishes this by creating CLE events that facilitate interacting with and learning from our judiciary, events promoting the health and wellness of our members, and monthly networking happy hours. 

In order to be a member of the Young Lawyers Section, you must be a member of the Palm Beach County Bar Association.
