Welcome!
On behalf of the International Practice Management Association (IPMA),
we are excited to invite you to connect with the most influential group
of legal practice support managers in North America!

37TH ANNUAL IPMA CONFERENCE & EXPO
October 13-15, 2021 | Westin Buckhead Atlanta | Atlanta, GA, USA

The IPMA has a membership of legal practice management professionals
located throughout the United States and Canada. IPMA members are active
decision makers with buying power to secure products and services necessary
to develop and manage practice management and paralegals programs within
their organizations. Many are full-time paralegal directors, managers, or
coordinators; some are working managers or case managers; some are human
resource professionals or attorneys who manage paralegals and practice
support professionals; and others handle a broad range of administrative
responsibilities related to paralegals and other practice support professionals.
Members of the IPMA are vital to the continued growth of the practice
management within their organizations.

The IPMA Annual Conference & Expo is the association’s hallmark, three-day professional development and
networking event. Participants attend educational sessions and workshops on practice support management, and
for many attendees, the expo serves as their primary opportunity to stay informed about the latest services and
products available from legal industry service providers. With breakfasts and breaks in the expo hall and scheduled
social festivities, business partners can expect frequent opportunities to interact with IPMA members. This is your
opportunity to connect with your clients—current and future—and establish partnerships in a casual atmosphere
away from their day-to-day office concerns.

From sponsoring conference educational sessions and social events to branding and other exposure opportunities,
Business Partners have a variety of options to make the most of their presence at the IPMA Annual Conference &
Expo.
