D.C. Bar Board of Governors

The D.C. Bar is governed by a Board of Governors composed of 20 lawyers selected by the active membership and three members of the public appointed by the Board itself as nonvoting members.

The Board of Governors is made up of a select group of volunteer leaders whose expertise, diverse perspectives, and spheres of influence help advance our position as the nation’s preeminent bar.

Elections for the Board of Governors are typically held in May and newly elected officers and board members are sworn in at the July meeting of the Board of Governors.
