Message from the President

 

 

Dear website visitors,

As the President of the Maryland Chapter of the Federal Bar Association, I welcome you to the Maryland Chapter’s webpage! 

For 72 years, the Chapter has been an important resource and forum for lawyers practicing before the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland.  As you will see from our website, we offer substantive and diverse educational programming, including our popular Judicial Fireside Chats, our Annual Introduction to Federal Practice Program, our Shattering Barriers programming sponsored by our Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Committee, and our Summer Speaker Series for new associates and interns. We also facilitate engagement between and among the bench and the bar, most notably with our annual luncheon in the spring.  

If you are not a member, I encourage you to become one by visiting Join - Federal Bar Association MD (fbamd.org).  The FBA offers complimentary membership for all law students and term law clerks of any federal court judge.  It likewise offers honorary membership for all federal court judges and discounted membership for attorneys with less than five years of practice, solo practitioners, public sector attorneys and retired attorneys. 

If you are already a FBA member, I invite you to become more involved in our Chapter by joining a committee or becoming a member of our Board of Directors by emailing [email protected].

Only with the active involvement of the bar can the Chapter continue its mission of advancing the administration of justice and improving delivery of legal services in the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland. 

I look forward to seeing you soon at an upcoming event.

Warm regards,

Maria Salacuse

President, Federal Bar Association, Maryland Chapter
