This Skills Lab will dive into the art of positive communication in a legal setting, giving you practical tools to handle challenging conversations and strengthen professional relationships.

Led by alumnus Bill Groner, attorney for 10,000 ground zero workers in the decade-long
litigation labeled the most complex mass tort in history, author, and co-founder of the Positive Connection Initiative, this session will explore real-world role-play scenarios that mirror the communication challenges lawyers face daily.

Skills Lab: Positive Communications = Positive Success in Law

Space is limited and registration is required. Register in Handshake!

What to Expect:
● Learn how positive communication techniques can directly impact career success.
● Gain strategies for building trust and credibility as a future attorney.
● Participate in role-play exercises to practice real-world scenarios.

This interactive workshop is open to all students, but will be especially valuable for juniors and seniors on the law career path. You’ll learn not just from Bill, but also from peers through role-play and collaboration.
