Under the career credo of “it’s never too young to start planning,” this weekend 25 Dallas high school students, three Dallas law school deans and almost two-dozen women lawyers are scheduled to gather for a symposium.

“We wanted to, in one day, expose the high school women to different aspects of a career in the legal profession,” said Nicole Knox, a criminal defense solo practitioner and past president of the Dallas Women Lawyers Association, who helped organize the event.
