The Colorado State Bar Association (CBA), founded in 1897, is a voluntary bar association for the state of Colorado. There are 26 local bars within the organization. The CBA works for the common interests of attorneys and judges and is a non-profit organization. It has 30 sections and 18 committees which cover diverse specialties of the law. Each section offers members a closer association with other professionals engaged in a similar legal specialty. Perhaps the earliest bar association in what is now Colorado was the Weld County Bar Association, founded by three lawyers in or after 1870.

  • The Colorado State Bar Association (CBA), founded in 1897, is a voluntary bar association for the state of Colorado. There are 26 local bars within the organization. The CBA works for the common interests of attorneys and judges and is a non-profit organization. It has 30 sections and 18 committees which cover diverse specialties of the law. Each section offers members a closer association with other professionals engaged in a similar legal specialty. Colorado's attorneys are licensed and disciplined by the Colorado Supreme Court. The court's attorney regulation system, funded by attorney registration fees, polices the profession. In addition, the court oversees the State Court Administrator, Board of Continuing Legal Education, Board of Law Examiners, Commission on Judicial Discipline, and Unauthorized Practice of Law Committee. Perhaps the earliest bar association in what is now Colorado was the Weld County Bar Association, founded by three lawyers in or after 1870. A 21-member board of governors is elected on an annual basis, except for an executive director, who is hired by the board itself. Colorado is one of the few voluntary states, where attorneys do not need to belong to practice law. The Bar provides opportunities for continuing education, volunteering, and networking for those in the legal profession while upholding the standards of the bar. Likewise, the Bar works to secure efficient administration of justice, encourage the adoption of proper legislation and perpetuate the history of the profession and the memory of its members. The headquarters are located in Denver, Colorado. CBA is the publisher of a bi-monthly journal, The Colorado Lawyer. Continuing Legal Education in Colorado, Inc. (known as “Colorado Bar Association CLE”) and the Colorado Bar Foundation share names with the CBA and are related, but are separate entities with separate governing boards. They are not within the scope of this plan. Though separate processes, these organizations may engage in strategic planning and consider better alignment with the CBA. (en)
