About
The Barristers is a Professional Organization of prominent attorneys and local judges experienced in the practice of law and respected by their peers. Founded nearly 100 years ago, the names of several original members still appear in the names of law firms. The organization is operated exclusively for pleasure, recreation, and other nonprofit purposes, including the maintenance of high standards of legal ethics and practices of its members, as well as the development and encouragement of social relations among its members for their and their clients’ mutual benefit. It has proven to be a great forum for younger lawyers to mix and mingle with more experienced counsel and judges in a friendly and inviting setting.
