Earn all of your annual New York MCLE credits while obtaining crucial knowledge on a variety of areas. This Bridge-the-Gap program fulfills a full year’s credit requirements for those who are newly admitted, while providing invaluable information and credits for more experienced attorneys. A skilled faculty will guide you through the day-to-day practice of law and cover topics of interest to all attorneys, including legal ethics. This program is unique because we offer one day of litigation-focused topics and one day of corporate; you can purchase both days together, or just one. In order to fulfill the New York MCLE Bridge-the-Gap requirements for newly admitted attorneys, you must attend both days.
Each Bridge-the-Gap program contains updated content and will provide CLE credit to all attendees, even if they attended in the past.
