President's Letter
Dear Members,
I hope you all are having a great March. It has certainly been a good month for the Irish in the Bay Area, and has been a great opportunity to meet many of the dignitaries who came over for the holiday. Speaking of which, the pictures of our breakfast with the Tánaiste have been posted!
We have a strong line up of events planned over the next few months. This Wednesday, we will hold our first MCLE event of the year. I hope many of you will be able to join us as we present an overview of Accounting for Lawyers.
I'm also happy to announce that the IABA has a new sponsor! Special thanks to our friends at A&L Goodbody who join LPS as our corporate sponsors. A&L Goodbody were the first Irish Law firm to open an office in the US (New York) and we welcome them as the first Irish Law firm to sponsor the Irish American Bar Association of Northern California.
One of our goals for this year is to expand the reach of the IABA. To this end, we will partner with other networks from time to time to bring events we think are of interest to our members. The folks over at the British American Business Council have planned a great event for April 19th, discussing the future impact of Brexit. They've put together a great panel and it's sure to be an informative evening.
Speaking of partnering with other organizations, we are in the beginning stages of putting together what I hope will become an annual tradition; a Garlic & Gaelic dinner with our friends at the Italian American Bar Association. The date has been set for April 27, details will be added to the event page soon.
Lastly, I would like to mention an upcoming event that I hope you take the time to read about. You'll see information below for Comedy for a Spinal Cause. I've had the chance to attend this event in the past. It's an amazing evening with first rate comedians, and it's all for a good cause. Please take a moment to visit their event page.
Regards,
Nick Ginger
IABA President
