Volunteering with WSBA

Welcome! Volunteers are vital to the work of the WSBA and the legal community. The WSBA and legal community benefit directly from members and members of the public who share of their time and talent, skills, experiences, and bring the diverse perspectives necessary to steer the organization forward. Volunteering with the WSBA is a unique, rewarding experience that has a direct impact on the legal profession in a myriad of ways.

Information for Current Applicants:

Once you apply, you will receive a confirmation email. Applications will be reviewed by individual recommendation teams for each position, then by the WSBA Board of Governors Nominations Committee, which makes the appointments subject to review  by the entire Board of Governors. Positions typically begin Oct. 1. It may take one to three months to receive an update regarding the status of your specific application. This is due to the meeting schedules of both the specific entity and the Board of Governors Nominations Committee
