ABOUT ACC-CHARLOTTE

The Association of Corporate Counsel (ACC) is a global bar association that promotes the common professional and

business interests of in-house counsel who work for corporations, associations and other private-sector organizations through education, information, networking opportunities and advocacy initiatives. The Charlotte Chapter is a rapidly growing organization with over 700 members located in the heart of the dynamic corporate and financial center of North Carolina. We offer our members a wide-variety of events throughout the year, including monthly chapter meetings, firm CLE events, social and networking events, Annual GC/CLO dinner, our Annual Gala Event, Casino Night Fundraiser, Affinity Groups events and Pro Bono events. Ten outstanding local law firms serve as our strategic sponsors, offering top-quality CLE programs which have been approved for 1 hour of CLE credit in North Carolina. As a member, you have the opportunity to participate in a variety of committees which help shape the direction of the chapter. We strive to keep our members well informed through the monthly chapter meetings, email communications and our quarterly newsletter, which includes chapter news, a schedule of upcoming events and recognition of member achievements. The Charlotte Chapter serves in-house counsel not only in the large Charlotte metropolitan area but also the cities of Winston-Salem, Hickory, Asheville, Boone and Fort Mill, South Carolina. For more information on our activities contact Jane Nohr, Charlotte Chapter Executive Director, at 704.999.0814 or [email protected].
