NLD Soirée – Did You Hear the Buzz?

A big thank you to everyone who attended this year’s New Lawyers Division Spring Soirée on April 4th! It was a huge success.

Over 60 guests gathered at The Rainier Club to socialize and celebrate the announcement of the 2024 Mentor of the Year. The finalists for the award were all recognized for their generous support of the next generation of attorneys. This year’s winner is Dean “Stan” Perkins of Dean Standish Perkins & Associates. Well-deserved congratulations, Stan!

In addition to the celebrations, the annual NLD silent auction raised a record $2,440 for our Neighborhood Legal Clinics! Thank you to everyone who contributed to making and filling the baskets.

Another thank you goes out to Ian Brown and the NLD Social Events Committee for their hard work, dedication, and Bee-themed puns. Without them, the event would not have been possible.

Last, but not least, huge appreciation to this year’s event sponsors!

  • Diamond Sponsor: Pfau Cochran Vertetis Amala. PLLC
  • Gold Sponsor: Ryan Swanson & Cleveland PLLC
  • Silver Sponsor: K&L Gates LLP
