A Charge Forward Experience For Women Trial Lawyers and Paralegals

Ready to Do the Work and Be the Badass Unleashed 

Some of you have been doing Badass work for a year. Some of you are about to begin. Whether you are the trial lawyer or the paralegal, new to Badass or familiar with some of the Connection Advocacy teaching, everyone belongs and is welcome in the Badass room.

 The Badass Unleashed is a charge forward for women trial lawyers ready to read a courtroom, a conference room, and any room the way they read a familiar road, to communicate with the precision and pull that bypasses resistance, and stand in front of a jury, a witness, or a client so composed and so undeniable that the room tilts toward them before they have finished speaking. Composed. Congruent. Commanding. Electric connection.

The Charge Forward Begins in October!

Time is of the essence – Badass Unleashed is limited to 40 attendees – ONLY 40!!‍ ‍
Sign up now, don’t hesitate, be a badass and get this done!

This event is exclusively available to Society members.

Hear from our members

  • Tara Eberly Janet, Janet & Suggs, MD

    “Thank you for the thought and care you put into this weekend. You created a space where women can connect, learn, and just be themselves without any of the usual noise. The conference felt equal parts sharpening trial skills and building real relationships, which is a rare combination. I am grateful to be a part of SWTL 2026. I’m already looking forward to the next one.”

  • AMANDA M. WILLIAMS, BASSFORD REMELE

    “Thank you for all that you do. The conference was wonderful and inspirational and I always leave feeling re-invigorated. You have created something incredibly special and I am grateful to be able to participate in it.”

  • Christine Murphy, The Jaklitsch Law Group

    “I’ve spent many years attending (and trying to get out of attending) conferences. This is the ONLY conference that I want to attend each and every session. When I leave the Society of Women Trial Lawyers conference, I feel like I’m a better lawyer, but also a better person.”

  • Caroline Genster, RebuttalPR

    “I left the Society’s fall retreat feeling grounded and more aware of how I can show up authentically in my role as a leader at my firm. The weekend’s focus on communication and community highlights the unique space that the Society has cultivated for both new attorneys and distinguished leaders in the legal field.”

  • Somer Brown, Cox Cox Filo

    “The seminars put on by the Society bring top-notch and relevant education, but also allow me to see, hear from, and network with an amazing group of women who ‘get it’ and support me and others in achieving their personal profession goals - whatever those may be!”

  • Alexandra Rizzo Arnold, Dever Law Group

    “As someone who was sworn into practice during the height of Covid, it felt hard to network and meaningfully connect with others while behind a screen. This organization provides a true sense of community. I was personally greeted by other members during the first meeting I attended and have felt at home since.”

  • Cara L. O'Brien, O'Brien Law

    “Many heartfelt thanks to everyone that put so much effort and thought into the annual conference in Nashville. I’ve been to a lot of conferences and this one was so wonderfully different. The substance and energy were amazing. Everyone from Maryland loved everything about it. “
