The Colorado Chapter of the Federal Bar Association covers the entire state of Colorado. Chartered in 1945, our members come from private practice, government agencies, local law schools and the U.S. District Court for the District of Colorado. The Chapter sponsors exciting and unique CLE opportunities throughout the year including "Meet the Magistrate Judges," held each June, which is targeted to new lawyers and offers attendees the opportunity to pose questions to the magistrate judges about practice in the federal district courts. Last year, the Chapter organized and sponsored a Supreme Court Swearing-In Ceremony, whereby over 50 attorneys were admitted to practice before the U.S. Supreme Court. The Board and members of the Colorado Chapter consistently have opportunities to network with other members of the bench and bar and to work together on matters of mutual concern.
The chapter works closely with federal judges and practitioners to advance the sound administration of justice. Besides serving our members, we look for unique opportunities to help chart the FBA's course at a national level as well as to be an active, responsible citizen in the Colorado legal community. We welcome you to become involved in your Chapter of the Federal Bar Association--if you have questions regarding membership or upcoming events, please contact me at (303) 866-0551 or at eve.burton@hro.com.
