The
Italian American Lawyers Association,
a Los Angeles-area bar association, was
founded in 1977. It is known for its outstanding
speakers, authentic Italian meals, and an
energy that is unique to our bar association.
Annual events include “California
Supreme Court Night,” featuring the
Chief Justice and Associate Justices of
our state’s high court, “Gaelic
and Garlic Night,” held with the Irish
American Bar Association., “Marco
Polo Night,” held with the Southern
California Chinese Lawyers Association and
the Japanese American Bar Association.,
“Hall of Fame Night,” where
we honor prominent members of our community,
and the “Installation Ball.”
Our
meetings are informative, and never dull.
Every meeting is a celebration. We celebrate
being together, and being of Italian heritage.
Those who aren’t of Italian heritage
celebrate along with us! We hold our meetings
at Casa Italiana, a meeting hall that is
filled with good feeling, as well as aromas
emanating from the kitchen reminding us
of family dinners.
The IALA is a family. Please look around
our website and leaf through our “family
photo album.” Interested new members
are always welcome at our general meetings,
usually held on the third Wednesday of every
month, to mingle with our lawyers, judges,
and other members in a relaxed, comfortable
setting.
