The Houston Trial Lawyers Association is hosting a tour of the Harris County Courthouse and a swearing-in ceremony at 3:30 p.m., November 16 at the Harris County Courthouse.

The free event is for attorneys who are new to Houston or HTLA, who just passed the bar exam, and for recent or soon-to-be law school graduates.

“This is an opportunity for newly licensed attorneys, attorneys who are new to the area, law students who will be taking the bar soon, or anyone who would like to learn more about the Harris County Courthouse, meet the local judiciary, and network with other attorneys,” HTLA President Kevin M. Camp said.

Events include the swearing-in ceremony, a tour of the courthouse with practicing trial lawyers, an opportunity to meet the judges, and information about technology in the courtroom.

Information about where to park, how to file, the ancillary docket, and more will also be provided.
