Barrister's Reach Out to Law Students

On January 19 and 20, the Barristers of the Detroit Metropolitan Bar Association visited University of Detroit Mercy and Wayne State University Law Schools to meet with future colleagues and answer student questions on topics such as job searching, interviewing, resume writing, and ways to obtain legal experience while in law school. 

Our deepest appreciation is extended to Kelly Law Registry for sponsoring the law school visits and generously providing the pizza, as well as helpful insight regarding the job market and tools necessary for successful job search.

We also thank the panel members, University of Detroit Mercy Law School, Wayne State University Law School and the Law School Committee.
