The West Virginia State Bar, established in 1947 as a mandatory bar and operating as an agency of the Supreme Court of Appeals, serves approximately 9,000 active and inactive attorneys licensed in the state. The non-profit company is based in Charleston, WV. Governed by a 25-member board of governors elected statewide, it functions without state funding, relying on membership dues and service fees. The organization provides resources and services for attorneys and the public, including membership information, mandatory continuing legal education, legal malpractice insurance, retirement funds, career services, and access to committees and boards. Public services include lawyer referral, free legal answers, veterans legal assistance, mediation search, complaint filing against attorneys, and the Lawyers’ Fund for Client Protection. The bar offers a voluntary fee dispute resolution program, enforces rules on unlawful practice of law, regulates legal practice entities, administers the Interest on Lawyers Trust Accounts (IOLTA) program, and collaborates with the Judicial and Lawyer Assistance Program to assist impaired legal professionals. It maintains a membership directory, publishes a newsletter, provides news updates, and emphasizes succession planning for sole practitioners and small firms. Communication with members is facilitated via electronic means.
