ABOUT
Each year the Mississippi Legal Professionals Association hosts LAST CHANCE CLE aimed at providing continuing legal education for its association members as well as attorneys, paralegals, legal staff, and court reporters.
This annual CLE event began in Biloxi, MS in 2017. In 2019, a second event was added to provide a site for attendees in the Jackson metropolitan area of central Mississippi.
From 2019 thru 2022, due to Covid-19, we offered our programs to a wider audience through Zoom.
In 2023 & 2024, both the "Biloxi" and the "Pearl" programs were presented live - for in-person attendance and also via Zoom.
In 2025, both the "Biloxi" and the "Pearl" programs will be presented live - for in-person
attendance ONLY
