AALAM × Suffolk APALSA: Government & Public Interest Litigator Panel

AALAM’s Government and Public Interest Committee teams with Suffolk Law School’s Asian Pacific American Law Students Association for a litigator panel on Tuesday, November 10, 2026, from 7:00 to 9:00 PM in the Faculty Dining Room at Suffolk Law, 120 Tremont Street. The panel is built around AAPI lawyers who have worked government and public-interest dockets—path talk and practical questions, not a CLE lecture block. Refreshments are listed. Hosts want two steps before you show up: RSVP on the AALAM event page, then email kyle.makalusky@su.suffolk.edu so Suffolk can count seats. One click is not enough. Speaker names are not on the public page yet; treat the live AALAM listing as the record if bios post closer to the night.

AALAM has been Massachusetts’ Asian American bar association since 1984 and keeps its mail c/o the Boston Bar Association at 16 Beacon Street. Suffolk’s APALSA is the student chapter sitting a few blocks away on Tremont—useful geography for students who already take classes in that building and for junior lawyers who want PI and government voices without a NAPABA-week trip. Same Tuesday, TiE Boston’s Real Estate SIG runs a franchising panel at 6:00 at Grand View Farm in Burlington. That room is Indus founders and multi-unit assets. This one is the courthouse career lane.

Law students, junior associates, and laterals testing government or public-interest litigation will get the most from the dining-room Q&A. If you only needed a Seaport deal mixer or a December Chinatown soirée, those are other nights. Come with one specific ask—hiring cycles, how panelists moved from firm to agency, or what the docket actually looks like week to week.

Tremont near the Common is an easy Park Street or Downtown Crossing walk. After-hours building access can be picky, so bring ID that matches your RSVP and leave a buffer before 7:00. Save both the AALAM confirmation and your Suffolk email thread.
