Pillar firms are those that support the mission and activities of King County Bar Association through 100% membership among the attorneys in the firm. This kind of support is critical to the Association and, judging by responses to a survey of representatives of the Pillar Firms, being a Pillar is important to the firms as well!

Asked what parts of our mission are most important to them, survey responses, in descending order of importance, were:

• Promoting professional excellence
• Strengthening the administration of justice
• Ensuring the availability of legal services for all persons
• Increasing public understanding of the law
• Providing opportunities for professional growth and development
• Demonstrating leadership in the legal community

Asked why they chose to become a Pillar of the Bar, responses were:

• Our participation shows support of KCBA
• The choice ensures our involvement with the local legal community
• An added chance to network within the legal community
• Marketing opportunities for the firm
• Other reasons, including ease of billing process

We are gratified that the Pillars of the Bar program serves the Bar and the representatives of Pillar firms!
