The National Lawyers Guild was founded amid growing corporate resistance to progressive legislation and today we are again confronted with the need—and the opportunity—to remake our society. Join us for groundbreaking discussions on movement law, and be a part of the legal arm of liberation movements! The NLG's 2018 #Law4ThePeople Convention will take place in Portland, OR on Wednesday, October 31 - Sunday, November 4, 2018! Join hundreds of legal professionals, scholars and activists for five days of interactive CLEs, workshops, and panels by members of the oldest and most progressive public-interest bar association in the country.
The event will be held at the Benson Hotel. If you are an NLG member, register for the convention here (you can register to become a member here).
Please Note: The true cost of the convention is hundreds of dollars per person. However, like the NLG's membership fees, convention registration rates are sliding-scale suggested amounts. No one is turned away for lack of funds. Please contribute whatever you can so that we may continue providing conventions that are affordable for all. Your support keeps the Guild alive—thank you!
