2026 Regional Meetings

2026 Regional Meetings

Beginning on August 28th, the West Virginia State Bar is once again traveling across the Mountain State to bring you this year’s Regional Meetings. Each meeting will feature an engaging presentation from local Family Court Judges, insights from the Office of Disciplinary Counsel on AI, and a Criminal Law Update from Public Defender Services. It’s a great opportunity to connect with colleagues in your area and earn CLE credits—right in your own backyard or by visiting a new location!

Following the Regional Meeting CLE, the Public Defender Services will be hosting an additional CLE that participants are invited to attend.

Important Dates and Details:

  • Registration for the first five Regional Meetings opens July 28th.

  • Registration for the remaining five meetings opens August 25th.

  • The registration fee is $150 and includes lunch.

  • CLE approval and registration updates will be shared in the weekly Bar Blast.

All Regional Meetings will be held from 10am-1pm. Arriving early is recommended to allow time for sign-in. The Regional Meeting presentations are only offered via in-person attendance, no virtual option is available.

If you are a federal or state public defender, federal or state court law clerk, government lawyer, or a lawyer for Legal Aid of WV you can register for a discounted rate of $100. Please arrange to send a check for payment, or pay over the phone with our Finance Director. 

Following the Regional Meeting presentations, Dana Eddy will also provide an additional CLE opportunity from the Public Defender Services. This CLE is free to attend and will be held from 1:30-3:30pm. 

Attendees can expect to learn about PDS’ resources that are available to court-appointed counsel such as motion banks, jury instructions, and a database of experts are unknown to court-appointed counsel. Attendees will also learn PDS offers attorney assistance on issue development, trial strategies, and research. This two hour CLE identifies PDS’ resources for court-appointed counsel. Also, PDS will announce its project to create regional points of contact to connect court-appointed counsel to services of investigators, experts, social workers, and other professionals.  Finally, PDS will answer any questions that counsel might have about the administrative processes governing billing. 
 

CLE approval is pending. Please check back for updates, and find the latest information in your weekly Bar Blast.
