In celebration of its 30th year, the Chief Justice’s Commission on Professionalism held a 2019 Convocation on Professionalism Then (1988) and Now (2019) on Friday, December 13, 2019, at the Emory Conference Center Hotel.

The Convocation Co-Chairs were Vice Chief Judge Carla Wong McMillian, Court of Appeals of Georgia, and Associate Dean A. James Elliott, Emory University School of Law.

The Convocation examined how the legal profession has changed over the past 30 years and explored how those changes have impacted the legal professionalism.  A transcript from the 1988 Consultation on Professionalism helped to guide the discussions.   The Convocation was approved for 6.5 hours of CLE credit, including 1 hour of ethics, 3 hours of professionalism and 1 trial practice hour.
