Careers in Law and Religion

Law and religion is a growing practice area. Lawyers in this field represent religious institutions, private clients, and all levels of government. They litigate cases, assist with regulatory matters, advocate for religious liberty and human rights and arbitrate before religious tribunals. At this panel program, practitioners in this vital practice area will discuss their work, their career paths and their predictions for the future.
