“I joined OCBA as a new lawyer and cannot imagine my career without this organization. The OCBA New Lawyers Committee provided me with leadership opportunities which were the foundation for my continued bar service. Many of my friends in the legal profession are people that I met through an OCBA committee or event. And the OCBA allows me opportunities to continue to network, which is vital for referrals in my practice today. ” 

- Jennifer Grieco, Altior Law, OCBA Past President and SBM Past President
