Chapters

Philadelphia

The Philadelphia Chapter was started in 2011 and has a growing membership. The Philadelphia Chapter is open to attorneys in the white collar defense arena and is composed of partners, counsel and associates from major law firms and boutiques and solo practitioners. The Philadelphia Chapter holds quarterly events for its members ranging from luncheons featuring speakers to networking cocktail receptions. The Philadelphia Chapter also offers a mentoring program which partners senior and junior members who meet quarterly. Our chapter is regularly in contact with each other and supports each other with acknowledgements of our members’ achievements and referrals. We welcome other WWCDA members from across the country to attend our events whenever they find themselves in Philadelphia.
