While COVID-19 concerns are preventing this program from occurring at Quantico this year, the VSB Military Law Section has worked hard to offer you the same high-quality instructional content through a remotely delivered option still providing live-interactive credit.
The Commonwealth of Virginia is home to one of the largest percentages of active duty and former military service members in the United States. Regardless of what type of law you practice, you eventually will encounter service members and their families as your clients. In this annual seminar, cosponsored with the Military Law Section of the Virginia State Bar, learn about some unique issues you need to know to professionally represent and assist these current or former service members and their families.
