Welcome

Jay A. Blechman, Esq.
I am excited to Chair the 2022 Bench-Bar Committee. I am just as excited to say that WE’RE BACK! We are back to a live, in- person, Bench-Bar Conference at Seven Springs for 2022! This event has been the best event of its kind among the Metropolitan Bars throughout the country for many years. I have great memories of spending time with other ACBA members, colleagues and judges at the Bench-Bar Conference over the course of my career. As a result, I am most pleased and honored to Chair this year's event… our come back year! There will be quality CLEs offered – of course – but, as always, there will also be food, drink, collegiality, networking and fun! I cannot wait to see you all again!
What Bench-Bar Is All About
It’s one of the Western Pennsylvania legal community's most popular traditions. And for good reason. The Allegheny County Bar Association’s Bench-Bar Conference is the region’s premier gathering of legal professionals. For more than five decades, lawyers and judges from the Pittsburgh area have congregated at Seven Springs Mountain Resort for a few days of networking, education, socialization and entertainment.
Countdown to Bench-Bar
For more than half a century, the Bench-Bar Conference
has been the premier gathering of lawyers and judges
in Western Pennsylvania.
