CELEBRATING 70 YEARS OF EXCELLENCE AND IMPACT!
Join the Houston Lawyers Association as we commemorate our 70th Anniversary with an unforgettable evening of empowerment and celebration. Our Annual Scholarship & Awards Gala is more than just a night of elegance—it is a testament to our commitment to justice, diversity, and the advancement of the legal profession. We look forward to honoring outstanding leaders making an impact in our community and awarding scholarships to deserving law students. Through this year’s gala, we are expanding our scholarship program beyond bar takers to also support 2Ls, 1Ls, and undergraduates preparing for law school, strengthening the pipeline for future attorneys. Thank you for your support in making this milestone year one to remember!

THE GALA IS A BLACK-TIE EVENT AND BLACK ATTIRE IS REQUIRED.
Yes, this means:
Black gowns/dresses and Black tuxedos/suits ONLY
BLACK TIE AND BLACK ATTIRE
1. We understand Black Tie doesn't mean all black.
2. However, the attire theme is An All Black Affair, so black attire is required.
3. This does not mean gentlemen have to wear all black. (Men can wear white shirts, stylish socks, etc.)
4. It simply means gowns/dresses and tuxedos/suits must be black.
5. Accessorize as you please!
