Connections have a profound power. Our profession thrives when we build on the experiences and focus and relationships we share with one another. When we connect – through mentorship, collaboration, or simply sharing a table and a story – we elevate ourselves and our profession.
Jill Rothstein, South Carolina 1996, is the executive director for the State Bar of Wisconsin.
Connection encourages us to hold each other accountable and supports our efforts to navigate ethical dilemmas with wisdom and care. Collegiality forms the foundation of our legal community, fostering trust and respect that transcend opposition.
Professional benefits abound as well. Networking enables us to stay current with developments in law, access resources, and find opportunities for growth. Through collaboration, we can deliver better outcomes for our clients and strengthen our collective impact. The State Bar of Wisconsin is committed to facilitating these connections, offering forums, events, and programs designed to bring us together.
I encourage each of you to embrace the power of connection at the State Bar’s Annual Meeting & Conference, June 10-12 in La Crosse. Join us, engage, and connect. Our shared journey enriches us all and advances the profession we proudly serve.
Connect, Learn, and Relax on the Mississippi River
The State Bar of Wisconsin 2026 Annual Meeting & Conference (AMC) brings Wisconsin’s legal community to La Crosse, where meaningful connections meet the Mississippi River.

The AMC brings the legal community together for education, connection, and a reset from daily practice. Join lawyers, judges, and legal professionals from across the Midwest and beyond for impactful CLE, engaging plenaries, and conversations that matter – set against the riverfront backdrop of La Crosse.
