#LawyerWellbeingWeek was conceived to encourage action across the profession to improve well-being for lawyers and their support teams.

After careful consideration of the developing COVID-19 situation, #PCBASpring2020 is being postponed. The event will no longer take place on April 24-25, 2020. While the MCLE conference is always fun and the Resort at Squaw Creek has plenty to offer, most important is the safety of our members, judges, speakers, and all their family, friends and coworkers. The conference is being postponed to September 18-19, 2020. Please mark your calendars as this will be our first end of summer conference. We look forward to seeing you there! If you have already signed up for the conference, you will be contacted about changing your reservation. The Board will be working to make this change as seamless as possible for our members.
