The purpose of the society is to promote and encourage the study of taxation law and to develop a strong relationship with the business and legal community. The Tax Law Society organizes many events throughout the year. At these events, the members of the society have the opportunity to network with the business and legal communities of Southern California.

Upcoming events include:

Meet the Firms Night. The Annual Meet the Firms Night is a chance for students to meet and network with tax law professionals from throughout Southern California. Organized in conjunction with the Career Services Office, Meet the Firms night brings numerous tax law employers to Chapman in an effort to further foster relationships with the local tax law and business community.

Speaker Series. The Tax Law Society also brings distinguished guest speakers to Chapman. The speaker series allows students to learn about opportunities and careers from guest speakers who are tax professionals from various areas of practice. The speaker series has also brought renowned tax specialists to Chapman to discuss such topics as the Taxpayer Relief Act of 1997, the 1998 IRS Restricting and Reform Act and Federal Tax Policy in the New Millenium.

To conclude the year, the Tax Law Society members gather for an end of the year party.

Past events have included bowling, baseball games and dining.
