An Evening of Insight, Conversation & Connection

The Dominican Bar Association invites you to an engaging fireside chat featuring the Hon. Rolando T. Acosta (ret., N.Y. App. Div., 1st Dep't) and the Hon. Joseph A. Greenaway Jr. (ret., 3d Cir.). Both have transitioned away from the bench and into private practice.

Join us for a thoughtful and candid conversation with these distinguished members of the legal community as they reflect on their judicial careers, share insights from their professional journeys, and discuss their perspectives on the law and the practice of law beyond the bench.

The program will be followed by a reception, offering attendees an opportunity to connect with colleagues and members of the legal community.

* Please note registration is capped at 50 attendees, first come first served *
