Hampton Roads Chapter
The Hampton Roads Chapter was formed in 1992 as the South Hampton Roads Chapter. It draws its members from a wide geographic area, including Newport News and Hampton on the Peninsula, as well as Virginia Beach, Norfolk, Chesapeake, Portsmouth, and Suffolk on the Southside. The Chapter's goals include providing members with enhanced benefits such as increased opportunities for networking, referrals, and social interaction with peers and members of the judiciary.
