All conference-related information will be featured on the App.
Click here to download or to learn more.

Registration

Register as early as possible to take advantage of the early bird discounts. Payment in full is required to process all registrations. The registration fee covers all main sessions, workshops, three buffet breakfasts, and the Saturday night banquet. We will confirm your completed registration by mail or email. The status of your membership on October 11, 2018 determines your registration fee. Those attending law school or undergraduate school full-time are considered “Students.” When both spouses are attorneys, law students, or non-lawyer members, the spouse with the higher registration fee must register and the other need pay only the spouse fee.

Transportation

The hotel is located in Clearwater Beach, Florida, about 30 minutes (20 miles) from Tampa International Airport (TPA). A rental car discount has been provided to CLS by Avis. Use discount code T619199 at www.avis.com or by calling (800) 331-1600. Uber, taxis and other modes of transportation are also available at the airport.

SuperShuttle is offering CLS conference attendees a discounted rate on transportation to/from the airport. Use this link to reserve your reservation. Make sure you enter Group Code WJGWW to receive additional discounts including up to $5.00 off SuperShuttle service and $10.00 off ExecuCar service.

CLE Credits

CLS will be applying for state bar approved CLE credits. There is no additional charge for CLE credits for workshop sessions; however, you must fill out the proper CLE forms at the conference to receive credit. CLE credit is also available for the main session on Friday morning. CLE credits will be provided for workshops that qualify, which is dependent on the rules of each accrediting state.

Dress

Dress for the conference is business casual; Saturday evening banquet is business formal.

Special Needs

If you have dietary or other special needs, please let us know when you register so that we can make arrangements to accommodate your needs.
