Trusts and Estates Meetings leading the way back for the BBA
Prior to the pandemic, the Brooklyn Bar Association building had acted as a meeting spot for all of the various local bar associations and legal groups. Our members used the building, the Inns of Court regularly held meetings here, the Brooklyn Women’s Bar was active within the halls, and solo practitioners would regularly meet with clients.
At the height of the early pandemic, and before everyone had adapted to virtual meetings, there was a short period of time where there was nothing going on at the Brooklyn Bar Association at all.
Eventually the BBA adapted to Zoom meetings. It wasn’t easy, or quick, at first, but two groups really helped to lead the way — the Surrogate’s Court Committee and the Trusts & Estates Section.
