CONTINUING LEGAL EDUCATION 
The programs presented by UAJ throughout the year are geared to enhance your competence and abilities as trial lawyers and to better serve your clients and the public. All programs are certified for CLE credit. Most of the seminars are taped and available to members for later use. And, of course, members always attend our CLE programs at a reduced rate.   

LEGISLATIVE REPRESENTATION 
UAJ has one of the finest legislative teams in the state. This group of volunteers and paid lobbyists monitor all legislation introduced during the session and committee action during the interim. They serve as the trial bar’s front line in the battle to preserve and improve the role of the justice system in protecting Utah citizens.  

E-MAIL LISTSERVS
With one e-mail message, you can pose a question to over four hundred UAJ members.  Ask about depositions, expert witnesses, referrals or any other information that may help you in your practice. The UAJ offers ListServs for personal injury, medical malpractice, social security, workers compensation, employment law, and criminal law.  

THE UTAH TRIAL JOURNAL
UAJ's quarterly publication features articles and editorials on current legal topics and trial techniques, summaries of recent trial verdicts, settlements and appellate decisions, reports on UAJ legislative activities and pertinent professional announcements. Keep up on the latest information from Utah authors as well as trial lawyers from across the nation.  

MEMBERS AREA

TRIALSMITH provides UAJ members with access to the largest internet-based defense expert depo exchange in the world. Download the full text of depositions and documents and link to plaintiff's lawyers throughout the country who have the research you need.     

NEW LAWYER MENTOR PROGRAM
This program provides new lawyers with a sounding board for those sticky procedural and ethical questions while giving accomplished attorneys an opportunity to let someone benefit from their professional wisdom.  

AAJ
UAJ coordinates projects and protects the trial bar's interest in cooperation with the American Association of Justice. Your UAJ membership assures you a voice through our AAJ delegation in the ever-challenging legislative events on the national level.
