Law Week Lookahead: March 2023

Learn more about your corner of the law or a new corner and connect with other attorneys this month. Colorado’s legal community has plenty of March CLEs, happy hours and more planned with virtual, in-person and hybrid attendance options.

The Colorado Bar Association Sports and Entertainment Section presents a CLE on social media influencers, including what they do, how they make money and what attorneys should know about them. Or, join the Denver Bar Association and Colorado Bar Association’s Young Lawyers Division for a ski and CLE day at Copper Mountain with a presentation about the Colorado River Compact. The Colorado Women’s Bar Association will also host a CLE at Lady Justice Brewing to learn more about careers outside the law available to attorneys. 


If you’re looking to connect with other attorneys this month, check out happy hours and events planned by Colorado bar associations. Join CBA members for dinner as part of its Appreciate Culture series with visits to Mattie’s Soul Food Bar & Lounge and Mango House scheduled in March. Or, join the Colorado Hispanic Bar Association for a performance of El Espíritu Natural celebrating Su Teatro Cultural & Performing Arts Center’s 50th anniversary. 

Events may change. Check with organizers for the most current information about an event.
