Continuing
Legal Education
Among
the benefits of membership in TMAA are CLE programs specifically
for municipal practitioners. The Association generally does two
(2) programs each year, one in February or thereabouts and another
in conjunction with the Tennessee Municipal League conference
in June. These programs generally run all day and provide about
six (6) total hours of CLE credit. One and a half (1-1/2) hours
generally are devoted to ethics issues for city attorneys. The
registration fees for these seminars are very reasonable.
Email
Forum
A
computer e-mail forum sponsored by TMAA offers an opportunity
to share information and pose questions to municipal attorneys
throughout Tennessee by sending a single e-mail message. All municipal
attorneys are welcome to join the forum. To join, contact TMAA.
Municipal
Policy and Legislation
Membership
provides the ability to affect municipal policy and legislation
through affiliation with the Tennessee Municipal League and municipal
case law through amicus briefs filed by the Association.
Networking
Networking
and friendship with other attorneys and municipal practitioners.
Much information and many experiences are shared at each meeting
of the TMAA on an informal one-on-one basis or in small impromptu
groups. And one of the greatest legacies of any organization is
the fostering of enduring friendships that transcend the common
profession. TMAA serves as a vehicle for these experiences.
