Thank you to everyone who joined us for today’s Laredo Bar Association CLE on the Collateral Consequences of Criminal Convictions!

It was a fantastic session with our speaker, Laredo Criminal Defense Attorney Roberto Balli, who shared valuable insights drawn from his 30 years of experience as both a prosecutor and defense lawyer right here in Webb County. Great seeing so many familiar faces and connecting with colleagues across our legal community.

As a reminder, our general bar meetings will continue on the first Thursday of every month, with built-in CLE credit at each one.

We’re grateful for your support and look forward to growing an even stronger Laredo Bar together. See you at the next meeting!
