Thanks for tuning into Intangible Assets, a podcast by the Intellectual Property Law Section of the California Lawyers Association. I’m your host, David Lizerbram.

The California Lawyers Association is the bar association for all California attorneys. Our mission is to promote excellence, diversity and inclusion in the legal profession and fairness in the administration of justice and the rule of law.

In this episode, I’ll be talking to Joanna Mendoza. Joanna was a Trustee for the California State Bar representing the Third District (23 northeastern-most counties of the State), an unpaid elected position on a regulatory body for the State of California. We discuss her work with the State Bar, the transformation of the Board of Trustees, the time when CLA was "just a sparkle in our eye," and the current task force on Access Through Innovation of Legal Services recommendations.
