The 22nd annual convention's "INSPIRE" theme is intended to celebrate the successes of Asian Pacific American (APA) lawyers and encourage them to continue to strive for excellence and to give back to their communities. NAPABA anticipates that more than 1,600 APA attorneys in private practice, corporations, government, and the private sector will attend, along with state and federal judges and law professors from around the country.

Highlights of the annual convention will include what is anticipated to be the largest gathering of state and federal APA judges in history, a celebrity-studded welcome reception, an international law symposium, a public interest summit, and many other special events, such as interview sessions conducted by the White House Presidential Personnel Office.

WilmerHale partner Randall Lee is a featured speaker at this event, where he will present on a panel entitled "Corporations in Crisis: How to Mitigate Risk, Plan for the Problem, and Manage the Crisis."
