Ally Law Membership Conferences

Ally Law’s mission is to enhance the legal profession’s status worldwide and improve the quality and scope of services provided by its members.

Our conferences help fulfill this mission by providing a forum for lawyers to network with each other, thus establishing both professional and social relationships.

We organize four conferences for members each year. These events share law firm management best practices and discuss business trends impacting the legal industry.  In this way, members build trusted relationships with each other and gain valuable insights to support their firm’s success. These private events are available to members of the network and their accompanying guests.

2023 Americas Regional Meeting: September 28 – 30, Columbus, Ohio

This event will help attendees think creatively about new legal and non-legal service areas, using success stories from around the network. We’ll also hear from a group of Ally Law clients, who’ll share their perspectives on the service offerings and ancillary businesses they have come to count on as they work with our members.

First-time attendees will have an opportunity to introduce their practice areas to the group, and we expect several prospective member firms in attendance, as well as lawyers from larger member firms in Europe and Asia. There will also be plenty of informal social events to help attendees forge new relationships or renew ties with long-time friends across the network.
