The NJSBA Women's Leadership Conference is an annual event organized by the New Jersey State Bar Association, dedicated to empowering and inspiring women in the legal profession. This conference brings together accomplished practitioners who have utilized their law degrees and creativity to build successful careers on their own terms.

The 2026 conference will focus on themes such as launching and leading firms, founding innovative businesses, serving as in-house counsel, and holding influential government roles. Attendees will have the opportunity to learn from trailblazing lawyers who have charted their own paths to success, with breakout sessions tailored to solo and small practices, government and in-house attorneys, and those in larger firms.

The keynote speaker for the 2026 conference is Christine Quinn, former New York City Council Speaker, author, cable-news political commentator, and CEO of Women In Need. Her insights and experiences are expected to provide valuable perspectives on leadership and career development.

This conference is ideal for attorneys at all stages of their careers who are seeking to gain insights into diverse career paths, develop leadership skills, and expand their professional networks within the legal community.
