The Young Lawyers Division hosted ISBA Day at the ISBA Mutual office on Thursday, Feb. 15. A panel of young lawyers spoke to law students about how to prepare for and what to expect from life after law school. Topics covered included the most valuable skill they learned in law school, the most difficult workplace situation panelists have encountered as lawyers, how to handle the stress of your first law firm job, finding work-life balance, and more. The discussion opened up to audience questions at the end for a more interactive discussion.
