Below
you will find information about various subcommittees of the YLS.
As the service arm of the Alabama State Bar, the Young Lawyers
have strived over the years to serve both the community and our
profession. We've done this through a variety of great
programs and are starting even more this year.
Volunteering
on a subcommittee will involve a commitment of your time.
The return on this very precious investment will likely be your
community's acknowledgement of your willingness to serve.
Active committee participation provides a rewarding experience --
both personally and professionally. Plus, your service will
provide you with an opportunity to network with other
lawyers.
