Do you have paralegals in your office who could benefit from peer discussions about elder law topics?

The Illinois National Academy of Elder Law Attorneys will hold their October 2, 2015 UnProgram at the DePaul O'Hare Campus.

$200 NAELA State and National Members;

$150 Paralegals, Law Clerks and Legal Assistants employed by NAELA members

$250 Non-Members

$50 Students

The Unprogram idea was developed by the National Academy of Elder Law Attorneys to encourage free discussion amongst its members. Members will be divided into smaller groups with a moderator to introduce and explain topics as contained on the outlines, and group Q&A is not only encouraged, but mandated among all participants, discussions will ensue until the end of the session. At the end of the session, the participants will rotate to a room that will feature another topic and moderator. The groups should remain together throughout the entire conference to better facilitate discussion.
