Registration: 2025 Joint Midyear Meeting

Illinois State Bar Association | Illinois Judges Association
December 11 – 12, 2025
JW Marriott Chicago
151 West Adams Street, Chicago (map and directions)

All attendees are required to register for the Joint Midyear Meeting. In order to streamline the registration process, we have adopted a system that provides attendees with options to make selections based on their needs and preferences. We are hopeful that this will streamline the registration process and avoid attendee confusion regarding which specific events are being registered for.

There will be a “Midyear Meeting Registration” option that provides attendees with access to business meetings, joint programming, and hospitality throughout the meeting – including the Member Appreciation Reception (Thursday). The Midyear Meeting Registration fee covers generous hospitality, and meeting room set up and charges for joint programming, section council, committee, board, and Assembly meetings.  All other programs and events are separately ticketed to permit flexibility and options for those coming to the Joint Midyear Meeting.

Early Bird Registration is available online until December 5 and on-site registration begins December 11 in the Clark Room on the Third Floor at JW Marriott Chicago.
