On Tuesday, December 5, 2023, Schain Banks co-sponsored the DuPage County Bar Association’s (DCBA) “Conversations & Collaboration” luncheon for Presidents, Presidents Elect, and Executive Directors of the Bar Associations of Chicagoland. The event, which was attended by representatives of the Illinois State, Chicago, DuPage County, Kane County, Lake County, North Suburban, Northwest Suburban, and Will County Bar Associations as well as the DuPage County Chapter of the Justinian Society of Lawyers and the DuPage Association of Women Lawyers served both to kick-off the holiday season and begin an ongoing dialog among the local bar associations as to how best to work together to serve their members. DCBA President and Schain Banks partner, Rick Veenstra, served as an event host, along with DCBA President Elect Karen Mills who spearheaded the concept, and DCBA Executive Director Robert Rupp who pulled it all together.  Schain Banks was thrilled to have had the chance to support such a great event.
