Federal Bar Council


  • About Us

    The Federal Bar Council (the “Council”) is a 501(c)(6) membership organization of approximately 2000 lawyers who practice in federal courts within the Second Circuit. Many of the top litigators in the Second Circuit belong to the Council and are active in the organization. All the judges in the Second Circuit are also members of the Council ex officio.

    The Council is dedicated to promoting excellence in federal practice and collegiality among federal practitioners. It is also committed to encouraging respectful, productive relations between the bench and bar, to serving the interests of its members, and promoting the rule of law. Its 501(c)(3) sister organization, the Federal Bar Foundation (the “Foundation”), lends financial support to promote public service, historical exhibits, lectures, educational programs and publications. Additional information can be found at www.federalbarcouncil.org.
