Message from the President

The Idaho Chapter of the Federal Bar Association includes the entire District of Idaho. Our chapter was formed in 2004 and has nearly 175 members including practitioners from Pocatello in the east, Coeur d'Alene, Moscow and Lewiston in the north, and the southern portion of our state, including the capital city of Boise. Our chapter is very progressive hosting CLE programs ranging from federal court practices, CM/ECF practice tips, and Environmental Issues in the West. We hope you are able to join us at one of our functions!
