I thought this year's event was awesome. The venue was perfect. The events were well organized and convenient to attend. The Friday night party turned out to be exceptional with - did somebody say - lobsters? Kudos to the menu planner, for sure.

The Bench-Bar Conference was fun, insightful and simply wonderful.

I was honored and happy to receive a scholarship to the Bench Bar Conference, which allowed me to attend incredibly interesting panel discussions (especially the panel with four Philadelphia City Council members) and meet and network with other Bar Association members.

The venue was phenomenal, the presentations were outstanding, and the party at night was superb. Whenever I think that the Bar Association has outdone itself and can do nothing to top its last accomplishment, I am proved wrong yet again.

The conference was a grand slam this year. Everyone had a great time, the CLE was first-class and the venue was spectacular, especially for the Friday night extravaganza. Kudos to everyone involved!

This year’s conference was well-planned and well-rounded at an excellent venue. The CLE sessions were interesting and very informative.

I want to extend my sincere gratitude to the Philadelphia Bar Association, its executive director Ken Shear, all of the staff, our Chancellor Sayde Ladov, Bench-Bar chairs and the various sponsors, all of whom made the 2009 Philadelphia Bench-Bar Conference an overwhelming success. From top to bottom –Harrah's Hotel, the programming and the reception – were all outstanding. The Bench-Bar Conference is an event that I look forward to attending every fall and this year's conference did not disappoint.
