4th Annual Minority Picnic in South Florida

Annual Minority Picnic in the Miami area on October 27 @12:00.

The minority picnic is an annual event started by Atty Kozyak and his South Florida firm to address the needs of minority law students throughout the state in terms of connecting with majority firms, partners, etc. There are students there from basically every law school breaking bread with and “meeting and greeting” hiring partners and other lawyers from large & small law firms (not just in South Florida), corporations, judges (there are always a lot of them there), etc. The atmosphere is very informal but inviting, and the folks there are definitely about the business of breaking down barriers between majority law firms and minority students and promoting “equal opportunity.” Justice Quince and June McKinney always attend, and I’ve seen other lawyers representing Tallahassee firms there, too.
