We all know too well that once the weather breaks, it is time to celebrate. For many, it is the rejoicing of graduation, the reveling of the summer holidays, or purely the celebration of warm weather and cookouts. For the Cleveland Metropolitan Bar Association (CMBA) it is time to celebrate the legal community and welcome the newest attorneys sworn in this May, bringing together the exceptional individuals that make Northeast Ohio a center of professional legal excellence.

On Thursday, May 22nd the CMBA hosted their 5th Annual Greet the Judges & GC Reception, exclusive to its membership that is made up of IMG_1853federal, state and local judges, Northeast Ohio's general counsel, corporate and in-house attorneys. CMBA members gathered, along with event sponsors, at Café Sausalito in Cleveland for a casual, relaxed evening of appetizers and drinks.

Kevin O’Donnell, Avalon Cleveland’s Managing Partner, and Scott Huter, Director, eDiscovery Services - Midwest Region, were fortunate enough to attend the celebration. "This was a great opportunity to spend time with clients and community leaders,” says Huter. “I am already looking forward to next year’s event." Avalon was more than happy to be a sponsor of the CMBA, donating signage for the event.
