It’s Legal: New York Networking for Attorneys

The strongest referral networks aren't built through cold outreach or crowded networking events. They're built through genuine conversations, shared experiences, and trusted professional relationships.

That's what It’s Legal is here for.

It’s Legal is an attorney-only networking community designed specifically for legal professionals in the New York Metropolitan area. Our events bring together attorneys from a wide range of practice areas in a relaxed, professional setting where meaningful connections can happen naturally.

Founded by four well-connected leaders in the New York professional community—MerriLyn Gibbs, Michael Oberther, Kenneth Vrana, and Darragh Fitzpatrick—It’s Legal was built around a simple idea: attorneys deserve a networking experience created specifically for them.

• Attorney-only guest list
• Private, curated event space
• No sponsor pitches
• No CLE presentations
• One drink and small bites included
• Additional drinks available via cash bar
  

You’ll leave with new connections, real referral opportunities, and conversations that continue long after the evening ends.
