Young Lawyers Section: Connections

An Update from YLS

YLS strives to host at least one event for its members each month of the bar year.  In September, YLS held its kickoff event at The Abbey Taphouse!  We enjoyed the opportunity to meet many of our members.  During September, the YLS board also planned multiple upcoming events, including a service event with Greensboro Urban Ministries, a joint networking event with NCBA YLD, and the fall swearing-in ceremony.  We are excited to see many of our members at these upcoming events!  If you are an attorney under 40 years of age or have been practicing for less than 5 years, we would love to connect with you!  If you have questions about YLS or how to get involved, please reach out to any board member or our YLS email account, younglawyerssection@greensborobar.org. 

YLS Kickoff Event at The Abbey Taphouse

On Thursday, September 26th, YLS hosted its kickoff event for the year at The Abbey Taphouse.  It was a great turnout, and we were able to welcome familiar friends and some new faces!  We also enjoyed meeting the partners and children of some of our members.  Thank you to all those that made it to the event!  We hope to see all of you at future YLS events!

YLS Member Spotlight: Zachary Kovach, Board Member

Zachary handles landlord-tenant disputes and other litigation involving property law and debt recovery for the Law Offices of Adams and Winfree.  Zachary’s favorite part of his job is that it allows him “to be a problem solver,” “think outside the box for each case,” and “be creative.”  Zachary chose to join the YLS board to “meet and learn from other local attorneys,” including attorneys outside of his practice area.

New YLS Email Address

YLS has a new email address, younglawyerssection@greensborobar.org. YLS is taking this moment to update its email list.  YLS is a free GBA section for attorneys of any age who have been practicing for 5 or less years, or attorneys 40 years of age or younger.  If you satisfy one or both of these criteria and would like to be included on emails about upcoming events, please email younglawyerssection@greensborobar.org.  We look forward to connecting with all YLS eligible members of GBA!
