The Bar Association of Erie County (BAEC) is set to host its Annual Meeting and Members Reception on Wednesday, June 10, 2026, at 10:00 am in the Ceremonial Courtroom of the Old Erie County Hall in Buffalo, New York. This annual event serves as a platform for BAEC members to convene, discuss pertinent legal matters, and participate in the association's governance.

A luncheon will be provided immediately after the meeting, offering members an opportunity to network and engage in informal discussions. The event will conclude with a Continuing Legal Education (CLE) presentation titled "Our System of Justice on the Precipice," which explores the critical link between the Rule of Law and the preservation of democracy. This program is hosted by the BAEC's Rule of Law Committee in collaboration with the Robert H. Jackson Center.

The CLE presentation is accredited for 4.0 CLE credits, providing valuable professional development for attendees. The event is open to all BAEC members and offers a comprehensive agenda that combines formal proceedings with educational and networking opportunities.

Legal professionals seeking to stay informed about the latest developments in the legal community, participate in the association's leadership, and earn CLE credits will find this event particularly beneficial.
