The Massachusetts Bar Association kicked off the 2014-2015
association year at the President's Reception on Sept. 18, at the
Boston Harbor Hotel. MBA President Marsha V. Kazarosian emphasized
the importance of creating a strong MBA community and dedicated her
year as president to fostering relationships--particularly between
lawyers and judges--and furthering educational opportunities.
"As I mentioned earlier, 'It takes a village.' …The MBA wants to
be your village. We are here to help, we have the resources and we
want to provide you with what you need to succeed," Kazarosian
said. "That is our commitment to you, and that is my goal for the
MBA this year. Together, through education, unity, a strong
partnership with our judiciary and a commitment to ensuring access
to justice, I see the MBA as the community that will elevate our
profession, and I'm incredibly honored to have this opportunity as
your president to help make that happen."
