Comprised of highly proficient in-house and outside counsel experts, NELC members often collaborate in real-time to address the most challenging labor and employment law matters, and help each other stay current on legal updates across various jurisdictions.
“The information sharing and benchmarking that I am able to do with other NELC members helps me address and solve, to some extent, the challenges I face as an in-house attorney.”
NELC fosters robust networking and relationship building, provides advanced level CLEs, offers speaking engagements, and more, leading outside counsel to valuable business development and professional advancement opportunities.
“There are endless opportunities for business development. I have grown my book of business as a result of the referral sources and contacts I’ve made at NELC.”
NELC offers unparalleled labor & employment law programming from leading legal experts from across the country, provides access to top diverse legal talent, and creates opportunities for members seeking leadership roles.
“NELC has people who substantively know the law, live the law, breathe the law, and can talk about the law in amazing ways!”
Our programs for junior attorneys, both in-house and outside counsel, provide advanced skills training, exposure to NELC’s network of seasoned labor & employment attorneys, foster mentoring relationships, and create a pipeline for future NELC leaders.
“The NELC Academy was a pivotal experience for me and changed the trajectory of my career. I also met lifelong mentors, colleagues, and friends I consider family. It is an investment in your professional growth.”
