Join Missouri Bar Committees/Sections and the Board of Governors for the 2009 Fall Committee Meetings

There is no registration fee, and you don't have to be a member of a Bar committee to attend.

This gathering of state bar committees will take place November 20 at the Capitol Plaza Hotel in Jefferson City. This gathering marks the first meeting of the 2009-2010 bar year for most committees.



Meetings Offer Rewarding Combination of Committee Work, Free CLE and Social/Network Opportunities

CommitteesA rewarding combination of committee work, substantive educational programming and social opportunities, the meetings of The Missouri Bar's many committees form the basis of most bar activities. Through attendance and participation in committee activities, Missouri Bar members make a meaningful contribution to the betterment of the legal profession and the public good.

Service on a Missouri Bar committee provides individual members of the bar with the chance to play a significant role in bar activities - especially the development of legislative proposals and the staging of timely educational programming. In addition, attendance at the Fall Committee Meetings is both personally and professionally rewarding, bringing together lawyers with common interests and concerns.

During the 2009 Fall Committee Meetings, most Missouri Bar committees will meet in either morning or afternoon time blocks on Friday, November 20. However, some committees may choose to conduct meetings of a longer duration or convene at other times.


Lawyers attending the Fall Committee Meetings are traditionally able to take advantage of several free educational programs - each carrying MCLE credit – offered by various state bar committees.
