Law Week

Educating & Inspiring Students

One of the purposes of Law Day is to educate and inspire those outside the legal profession about the importance of the judicial system in an organized and accountable society. Each year the TPCBA New & Young Lawyers Section organizes presentations by our Pierce County Judges to Tacoma middle and high school students.

In addition to organizing the classroom presentations, the Young Lawyers Section selects one lawyer and one non-lawyer to receive the annual Liberty Bell Award. The award aims to recognize those who have made significant contributions to our judicial system, with an emphasis on the annual Law Week theme.
