Award Winning CLE
Voted Best Continuing Legal Education Provider in the Massachusetts Lawyers Weekly Reader Rankings
Continuing Legal Education in Massachusetts
The goal of Social Law’s continuing education courses is to provide the Massachusetts legal community and beyond with comprehensive educational webinars that are both affordable and relevant to our members. Currently, all Social Law Library CLEs are conducted online.
Social Law seminars aim to educate attendees on the ethical, professional, and technological skills necessary for being a successful attorney in Massachusetts and all other jurisdictions.
Faculty members from the bench, bar, and the professional communities share their expertise in order to give back to the legal community. Social Law often partners with other educational institutes, such as the Flaschner Judicial Institute, Lawyers Concerned for Lawyers, SJC Standing Committee on Lawyer Well-Being and the Law Office Management Assistance Program, that are committed to the bettering of the legal profession.

All of these faculty are outstanding-they balance energy and experience and insights. . . All of these speakers made it practical and relatable on all levels and all of this was relevant to my caseload and issues I'm confronting.
