About the RCBA New Lawyers Section

Want to grow your network? Build your reputation? Demonstrate your leadership skills? Make a difference in the local community? You can make it all happen through the RCBA.

No matter where you fit within our definition of a "new lawyer" the RCBA offers opportunities to learn, to lead, and to connect that sync well with your needs and interests.

As a new lawyer, your experience, your insights, and your engagement are deeply valued at the RCBA. We encourage you to tailor your involvement to what makes sense for you today, expecting that this will change over time as you move up in your career and you move through different life stages. Throughout your time in Ramsey County, we are here to be YOUR bar association.
