Foreign Lawyers Committee
Roster
MISSION STATEMENT:
The Foreign
Lawyers Committee (FLC) exists to promote the interests of foreign attorneys,
mainly based in New York, (including those with a degree also from an American
law school and those admitted also to the New York Bar) in the field of private
international law. To achieve its goal,
FLC will provide different types of gatherings covering legal topics of
interests for international lawyers and networking opportunities
for such lawyers and law students. These
networking opportunities will include larger gatherings (e.g., luncheon
presentations, cocktail hours), smaller gatherings, and one-on-one meetings, as
well as contact via email. The FLC
networking opportunities are designed to provide a professional and welcoming
environment for foreign lawyers of all levels and backgrounds, to meet and
learn from each other as well as to exchange legal thoughts and engage in
hearty discussions on subjects of interest to us. In addition, FLC will co-host substantive
programs with other ILPS committees when called upon.
