About
AHIA
The Academy
of Hospitality Industry Attorneys (AHIA) was formed by a group of attorneys from across the United States who represent
clients engaged in the hotel, restaurant, hospitality, travel, meeting,
convention, tourism and related industries (collectively, "Industries").
We are committed to promoting professionalism and education and improved
communication to create a network of competent, experienced attorneys
to improve legal services to our clients in the Industries.
AHIA's
membership consists of attorneys who have demonstrated experience, competence
and recognition in handling legal matters for clients in the Hospitality
Industry or as serving as in-house counsel to companies within the Hospitality
Industry. Membership is limited to those attorneys whom AHIA believes
will best represent the principles of leadership and excellence in providing
quality legal services to our clients in the Industries.
