GTLA President Linley Jones continued her efforts to spread our Association's message across the state this month, serving as the Keynote Speaker for both the Fayette County Bar Association and the Clayton County Bar Association meetings. In addition to connecting with current GTLA members, Linley's outreach efforts have also introduced many attorneys to the benefits of membership in GTLA and we have seen a significant increase in the diversity of our membership as a result.
If you would like to invite Linley to speak at your Local TLA or Bar Association, please contact GTLA Communications Director Chris Kelleher at ckelleher@gtla.org.  President Linley Jones with the Board of the Clayton County Bar Association UPDATE FROM AAJ
