KCBA’s First Annual Conference

Come for the CLE credits, stay for the community.

Join us for the King County Bar Association’s First Annual Conference, a dynamic gathering designed to bring KCBA members together for meaningful connection, practical support, and professional growth. Taking place from September 17-18, 2026 at the Grand Hyatt Seattle, this inaugural event centers on what matters most to today’s legal professionals: building relationships, strengthening practice skills, and navigating the evolving legal landscape.

The conference will kick off with a Welcome Reception on the evening of September 17, offering attendees an opportunity to connect with colleagues, meet speakers, and expand their professional networks.

On September 18, participants will enjoy a full day of engaging CLE programming, featuring thought-provoking keynotes and practical sessions tailored to attorneys at all stages of their careers.

Tentative plenary session topics:

• A.I. Policies for Law Offices
• Attorney Wellness—Now a WSBA Licensing Requirement?
• Innovation in Attorney Fee Structures
• Social Media Marketing for Attorneys
• Insurance Coverage for the Non-Insurance Attorney
• Legal Writing Master Class
• Update on WA Alternative Pathways to Licensure

This conference is for KCBA members only.

In addition to CLE, the Conference will feature complimentary headshots, section/division-specific networking opportunities, exhibitor tables, law-related apparel and other goodies for sale, and an optional dine-around lunch September 18.

Whether you’re looking to deepen your expertise, expand your network, or rejuvenate your practice, the KCBA First Annual Conference is your opportunity to come together with colleagues and invest in your future.
