MAY 13, 2025 MCLE EVENT

Message from the President
From Robert Coviello, Incoming President of IALOC

Cari amici,

I’m excited to personally invite you to our next MCLE event on Tuesday, May 13, 2025 at 6:00 PM, where we’ll gather at the beloved Antonello Ristorante in Santa Ana for an evening of fine dining, camaraderie, and compelling legal discussion.

Our topic? One that’s sure to spark interest, debate, and perhaps even a raised eyebrow:

“Criminal Defense/Politics, Allegations Of: Animal Cruelty, Specifically Cockfighting”

We’re honored to welcome John Cogorno, a respected voice in criminal defense, as our presenter. John brings deep insight into the intersection of criminal law, political pressure, and public opinion—especially when cases involve emotionally charged allegations like animal cruelty and cultural context. This is a conversation that goes beyond legal theory; it’s about how we, as attorneys, handle the real-world tensions that come with defending the unpopular or misunderstood.

As always, we’ll enjoy incredible food, great company, and—of course—MCLE credit. But more than that, these events are a chance for us to connect as a community of Italian American legal professionals who care deeply about the integrity of our craft.

Looking forward to seeing you there—and breaking bread together over good conversation and even better law.

Ci vediamo presto!

Con rispetto e gratitudine,
Robert Coviello - President

ITALIAN AMERICAN ATTORNEYS OF ORANGE COUNTY
LEX ROMANA

The first ever IALOC meeting took place at Joseph D'Antony’s home at which his mother, Adelaide, prepared and served a grand, homemade Italian meal. Also in attendance was Frank Barbaro, John Di Caro, Hon. James DeCesare, Richard Pacelli, Frank Terreri, Joe DiVencenzo and several others. Over many courses of delectable Italian dishes and many bottles of Italian wine, the IALOC was born. At that meeting, the group chose the name “Lex Romana” meaning “Roman law.” The founding fathers of the IALOC knew they were destined to turn this fledgling idea into a reality so all Italian American lawyers in Orange County and their family and friends could share in their legal gastronomic endeavor.
