AGC Labor and Employment Law Council’s
2025 Fall Meeting

Members in good standing of the AGC Labor and Employment Law Council (“LELC”) are invited to attend the LELC’s annual Fall Meeting on October 9 and 10 at the lovely Waldorf Astoria Chicago. We’re changing things up this year to make attendance easier by holding the event in a centrally located, business city and paring down the schedule – so please come join us!

Events kick off with a group dinner on Thursday, then breakfast and the meeting on Friday morning, and wrap up with group lunch after. Spouses or other guests are welcome to attend the meals.

The primary purpose of the Fall Meeting is to develop the agenda for the LELC’s 2026 Construction Labor Law Symposium and to conduct other LELC business, but it also offers attendees an opportunity to strengthen ties with other construction labor lawyers, hear about the latest labor law developments that peers around the country are facing, and get more involved in the LELC. This is not a CLE event.

As usual, there is no registration fee for the meeting, and meals will be provided to LELC members gratis. Guest dinners and lunch will be charged back later to those with participating guest.
