Chapters

San Francisco

The San Francisco Chapter was founded in 2010 as a professional support and networking organization for white collar defense attorneys in the greater Bay Area.

Membership is focused on partner and of-counsel level practitioners, as well as some senior associates. The group meets on an ad hoc basis, generally quarterly, for panel discussions, keynote speakers, social events, and networking.

Members are encouraged to be active in the referral network, directing work to one another wherever possible and also using the group as a resource for information and advising on a variety of white collar topics.

CHAPTER MEMBERSHIP CRITERIA

The San Francisco Chapter accepts Law Firm Attorney Members and Consultant Members as defined:

Consultant Member: Professionals who work at consulting firms (or non-attorney professionals who work at law firms), specialize in the White Collar Defense and Compliance field, and who otherwise qualify under the WWCDA membership criteria and offer support services and referral opportunities to attorneys in the practice.

Some WWCDA and chapter events may be limited to attorney private practitioner (law firm attorney) members only.
