A record 800 lawyers have signed up for the TBA’s 2020 Virtual Convention, which kicked off today with sessions about the recent legislative session, including the effects of the pandemic on the current and future work of the General Assembly, the status of budget negotiations and the fate of policy proposals such as elimination of the professional privilege tax. Attendees heard from House Judiciary Committee Chair Michael Curcio and committee member Bill Beck, Sen. Raumesh Akbari, TBA lobbyist Brad Lampley and Berkley Schwarz, director of public policy and government affairs. A smaller group enjoyed a morning exercise session while law firm managing partners gathered in the late afternoon to share their challenges and successes. Don’t forget to tune into tomorrow for another a great day of free programming.
