The Miami Beach Bar Association ("MBBA") was organized in 1946 by a small group of Miami Beach attorneys. Philanthropist and local attorney Baron De Hirsch Meyer was elected as our first President. Many of our members have gone on to serve as Judges, City Officials, and President of The Florida Bar. For a list of current Officers and Directors click on the link to Board of Directors on the left.

These meetings afford an opportunity for the members of the Bench and our Bar Association to develop the highest degree of mutual respect, collegiality, and education. CLE programs offered at these luncheon meetings serve to enhance competency and advocacy in the profession.

The MBBA began its monthly “North Beach Pro Bono Legal Program” in February 2008. It is hosted by Unidad of Miami Beach at the Coral Rock House Community Center, 1701 Normandy Drive, Miami Beach. This program is in partnership with the “Put Something Back" Pro Bono Project of the Dade County Bar Association and is made possible through a grant from the Florida Bar Foundation to the MBBA.
