Miami-Dade Bar immediate past President Jane Muir wields a sledge hammer at the recent “Wall Bashing” ceremony to kick off the renovation of the newly renamed Miami-Dade Bar’s 1960s-era building as President-elect Roger Slade, President Sabrina Puglisi, Secretary Charise Morgan-Joseph and Executive Director Bret Berlin look on. After more than 100 years, the Dade County Bar Association is rebranding at the Miami-Dade Bar.

The venerable Dade County Bar Association is changing its name to the Miami-Dade Bar (MDB).

Founded in the early 1900’s, and officially incorporated in 1920 by a handful of attorneys, today, the Miami-Dade Bar serves the more than 19,000 attorneys in the county and continues its mission to support and inform the county’s lawyers, as well as the community at large.
