It is the continued mission and vision of the Princeton Bar Association to provide services and benefits to its membership and the local community in a way that cannot be duplicated by a larger professional legal association. It is the goal of the Association to provide an intimate Bar for its members, with a local, community-driven purpose.
The Association is run entirely by local attorneys who volunteer their time for the benefit of the Association and local community. The PBA is not run by a staff and our seminars and events are not planned by individuals with no local interest. Rather, the Association and its events and seminars are all planned, managed, and implemented by the Officers and Trustees who are all local members of the community. Questions and concerns are answered directly by the President.
