    May 14, 2025 – Enhance your skills, expand your network, and elevate your legal practice at the State Bar of Wisconsin Annual Meeting & Conference (AMC).

    This year’s AMC convenes June 18-20, 2025, in Madison. Join hundreds of attorneys and judges from across Wisconsin and the nation for three days of learning, connection, and inspiration. With nationally recognized plenary speakers, more than 20 CLE sessions, and opportunities to connect with colleagues, AMC offers tools and insights to support your success.

    CLE Sessions

    Earn up to 11.5 CLE, EPR, LPM, and LAU credits (plus CLM credits for Wisconsin Association of Legal Administrators members), on a vast array of topics for every practice area and experience level. Earn an additional 7.5 credits by watching select complimentary webcast replays in July and August.

    Here's a sampling of the CLE sessions at AMC 2025:

    • Advising the Nonprofit Board – an Introduction
      Build your understanding of nonprofit legal frameworks and gain tools for supporting boards and organizations with confidence. (Thursday, June 19, 9:50 a.m.)

    • Where Paths Collide: Identifying Pitfalls of Overlapping Practice Areas
      Examine how legal issues intersect across disciplines and learn strategies to manage complex client matters. (Thursday, June 19, 11:10 a.m.)

    • Discouraging Reckless Driving: Opportunities and Legal Limitations for Communities

    The Best Opportunity to Network with Bench and Bar

    AMC is the largest in-person gathering of Wisconsin’s legal community. Connect with justices from the Wisconsin Supreme Court, judges from the Court of Appeals, and circuit court judges from across the state. Discover new ideas, develop referral relationships, and engage in conversations that support your professional goals.

    New: Judicial Track

    Tailored for commercial and civil litigators, the new judicial track sessions are your chance to hear directly from seven judges on:

    • pretrial strategy and courtroom dynamics;

    • business torts and the economic loss doctrine; and

    • receiverships and complex commercial laws unique to Wisconsin.

    Judges are among the presenters and speakers and have the opportunity to attend and earn judicial credit.

    Celebrate Your Colleagues

    On Wednesday (June 18), we’ll celebrate the Presidential Swearing-in, then join friends and colleagues from the Marquette University and U.W. law schools for refreshments and socializing. Everyone is invited!

    On Thursday, we’ll applaud the award recipients at the Member Recognition Celebration (June 19).
