Tennessee Bar Association Begins Third Mentoring Class

The Tennessee Bar Association’s Mentoring Program was an initiative of Jackie Dixon during her year as TBA president and was designed to foster mutually beneficial relationships between the participating attorneys, reduce the isolation experienced by some beginning attorneys, improve the quality of legal services received by clients, place renewed emphasis on the importance of professionalism, and generally benefit the legal profession as a whole. The TBA is currently beginning its third mentoring class and encourages mentees and mentors to check out the website to sign up for future classes.
