The earliest bar association in what is now Colorado was the Weld County Bar Association, founded by three lawyers in or after 1870.[2]
A 21-member board of governors is elected on an annual basis, except for an executive director, who is hired by the board itself.[1]
CBA is the publisher of a monthly journal, The Colorado Lawyer.
