Committee Mission
Young Professionals Committee is delighted to
sponsor the February 2021 issue of Just
Resolutions. Our committee's mandate is to provide
resources and opportunities for professional growth
to those section members in the early years or on
the cusp of their legal careers. Traditionally, this is
done through providing opportunities for talent
development and networking.
Message from the Committee Chairs Mansi
Karol and J. Brian Johns
The last year has witnessed rapid changes in dispute resolution and the greater legal field. The
ubiquity of virtual hearings, innovations in technology, and an increased willingness to engage in
arbitration, mediation, and facilitation to avoid the ever-growing backlog of civil case dockets
before domestic courts in unlikely to soon abate. The new frontier of legal practice is ripe with
opportunities for young and innovative practitioners and the committee is happy to offer a series
of articles by our members highlighting recent developments in dispute resolution.
In the coming year, we hope to increase the opportunities offered by the Young Professionals
Committee. All suggestions for program ideas are welcome and may be submitted through
