Happy Women’s History Month:

TMBA would like to recognize all of the spectacular women who serve as dedicated members of the legal profession.

We are excited to announce that TMBA has partnered with a local non-profit, The Illumination Foundation, for the 2018 - 2019 term.  The Illumination Foundation works with homeless families and children in Orange County to provide housing, resources and suppprt for those in need. 

We will be donating our time to serve and mentor homeless children that are part of the Illumination Foundation’s Children’s Resource Center, an after school enrichment program for homeless children. We hope that you all can join us in May 2018 and November 2018 for our volunteer night at the Children Resource Center. Stay tuned as there are more details to come.

We are fast approaching the Inaugugal UCI Law Black Law Student Association Gala, scheduled for April 7, 2018. TMBA is a sponsor of the event and will have multiple board members in attendance.  Please visit this link if you still have not yet purchased tickets.

In celebration of this monumental event for UCI Law, TMBA will host an after party (“The Afterglow”) at Mesa Bar in Costa Mesa from 9 pm to 1 am. We hope that you can join us. The flyer to the event is attached. 

Finally, the Western State College of Law Law Review is hosting its 2018 Law Review Symposium on April 7th from 9:30 am to 2 pm at the Western State College of Law in Irvine.  The topic of the event will be Discrimination in the Legal Profession and speakers will include the Honorable Victoria Kolakowski, the Honorable Halim Dhanidina, the Honorable Maria D. Hernandez and other experts in the field. This Symposium has been approved to provide 4 MCLE credits for attendees. The flyer for the event is attached.

As you can see, there is so much going on already this year. To continue to support us, please make sure that your TMBA membership is up to date. All funds are used to support TMBA’s mission, including providing scholarships to our Law Student Ambassadors.
