Strong bar leadership begins with strong governance, and the Washington State Bar Association has set an example of both. Amanda Arriaga and Patrick Palace welcome Francis Adewale and Terra Nevitt to celebrate the WSBA’s accomplishments and reflect on the leadership, collaboration, and strategic vision that have shaped their organization.
