The YLS contributes to the educational and professional advancement of attorneys, particularly those under age 36, while also contributing to the betterment of the Broward County community in general through charity functions and projects. The Young Lawyers Section has several annual events including Holiday in January, the Judicial Reception, Bowl-A-Thon, and our largest event, a Golf Tournament each Fall. The YLS also hold monthly luncheons that highlight prominent business people and leaders in the Broward County community, and monthly board meetings to ensure our agenda is on point with our objectives. Our luncheons and events are open to all, not just YLS members. Please take a look at our Calendar of Events for more information.

Proud to stand alongside our community partners in the fight against human trafficking.
The Broward County Bar Association was honored to partner with Brenda Forman and the Broward County Clerk of Courts on the Annual Human Trafficking Prevention Summit—an impactful and important gathering dedicated to education, awareness, and action.
This powerful program brought together members of the judiciary, law enforcement, leading experts, and courageous survivors to share insight, elevate understanding, and strengthen our collective response to this critical issue.
At the BCBA, we believe in using our platform to support initiatives that protect the most vulnerable and promote justice in our community.
Job well done by President @arongibson and thank you to our food sponsors @ericschwartzreich and Kemie King.

🌟 Honoring Leadership. Celebrating Impact. 🌟
The Broward County Bar Association is proud to recognize Broward State Attorney Harold F. Pryor as the Walter G. “Skip” Campbell Lawyer–Public Servant Honoree at our 101st Annual Installation Dinner & Gala.
A trailblazer and dedicated public servant, Harold F. Pryor made history as the first Black State Attorney in Broward County—and the first Black man elected to this role in the State of Florida. As the leader of one of the largest prosecutorial offices in the state, he remains steadfast in his mission to pursue justice with integrity, fairness, and compassion.
From his early days as a Broward prosecutor to his leadership in advancing thoughtful criminal justice reform, Harold embodies what it means to serve with purpose. His commitment to mentorship, community engagement, and equity continues to shape a stronger, more just Broward County.
A proud lifetime member of the BCBA, Harold’s journey with our organization began early in his career as a member of the Young Lawyers Section Board of Directors. Over the years, that involvement has come full circle—today, he has helped foster a strong and meaningful partnership between the Broward State Attorney’s Office and the BCBA, strengthening collaboration and connection across our legal community.
Join us as we celebrate a leader who reminds us that the true pursuit of justice is grounded not just in outcomes—but in truth, fairness, and humanity.
✨ Step Into an Evening in Gilded Havana
An evening of elegance and empowerment as we honor those who are shaping legacies and illuminating the path forward.

Honoring a Legal Legend. Celebrating a Lasting Legacy.
The Broward County Bar Association is proud to announce the induction of Robert "Bob" W. Kelley into the BCBA Hall of Fame as our 2026 honoree.
A nationally recognized trial lawyer and founding force behind some of the most significant verdicts in American legal history, Bob's career is defined by courage, excellence, and an unwavering commitment to justice.
From his landmark verdict against General Motors—a case that exposed a major corporate scandal and drew national attention, including coverage on 60 Minutes—to securing one of the largest jury verdicts in United States history, Bob Kelley has spent decades fighting for those who need a voice most.
With more than 100 jury trials, over 25 multimillion-dollar verdicts, and recognition as one of the Top Ten Lawyers in the United States, his impact on the legal profession is immeasurable.
Beyond the courtroom, Bob’s leadership, mentorship, philanthropy, and unwavering service to the Broward community have left an equally profound mark. A lifetime member and longtime supporter of the BCBA, he has remained deeply committed to strengthening the legal profession and supporting the mission of our Association for decades. His continued dedication to both the legal community and countless charitable causes reflects a legacy of service that extends far beyond the courtroom.
This recognition honors not only a remarkable legal career, but a lifetime devoted to advocacy, integrity, leadership, and service.
Please join us in congratulating Robert "Bob" W. Kelley on this well-deserved induction into the BCBA Hall of Fame.
Bob will be inducted into the Hall of Fame at the BCBA's Annual Installation Gala on June 13, 2026.

The Broward County Bar Association is grateful for longtime sponsor and supporter @uwwm_mediation
—and especially proud to spotlight Michael Weiss.
For Michael, it's not just experience—it’s approach.
In this clip, Michael Weiss shares how he views his role as a coach during mediation—guiding parties through the process, helping them navigate challenges, and working toward meaningful resolution.
With decades of experience handling complex civil disputes, Michael brings a thoughtful, steady presence to every case—focused not just on outcomes, but on helping parties get there with clarity and confidence.
At the BCBA, we’re proud to highlight professionals who are committed to resolving disputes the right way.
🤝 Because resolution isn’t just about the result—it’s about the process.

The Broward County Bar Association is grateful for longtime sponsor and supporter @uwwm_mediation
—and especially proud to spotlight @stevenjaffe
Steven Jaffee brings passion!
When asked “Why you as a mediator?” Steven says he hopes people see that he is different — a little hungry, driven by passion and purpose, and someone who truly cares about helping people resolve their conflicts.
After more than 40 years in litigation, representing both plaintiffs and defendants and mediating over 1,750 cases, Steven understands the pressures, the personalities, and the complexity that come with civil disputes.
That depth of experience — combined with a genuine commitment to helping people find resolution — is what he brings to every mediation.
🎥 Watch Steven share, in his own words, why he approaches mediation the way he does.
Thank you, Steve, and thank you to Upchurch Watson White & Max, for your continued partnership and support of the BCBA.

The Broward County Bar Association is grateful for longtime sponsor and supporter @uwwm_mediation
—and especially proud to spotlight @kenneth.cutler.39 .
With 38 years as a respected trial lawyer and now a Florida Supreme Court Certified Mediator and Qualified Arbitrator, Ken brings experience, balance, and perspective to every mediation and arbitration he handles.
Beyond the law, Ken’s commitment to community leadership—from Teen Court to the City of Parkland—speaks volumes about who he is both professionally and personally.
When asked why mediation over a trial, Ken says " Simple. Control, cost, and certainty."
Thank you, Ken, and thank you to Upchurch Watson White & Max, for your continued partnership and support of the BCBA.
