Semmes’ Principal, Christopher R. West Elected President of The Bar Association of Baltimore City
The Bar Association of Baltimore City was the first Bar Association formed in the State of Maryland and is one of the oldest in the Nation. Incorporated on January 15, 1880, its mission is "to aid in maintaining the honor and dignity of the profession, to promote legal science, and further the administration of justice."  Mr. West previously served The Bar Association of Baltimore City as President-Elect (2006-2007); Vice President (2005-2006); Treasurer (2004-2005); President of the Baltimore Bar Foundation (2005-2006); Chair of the Public Relations Committee (1991-1992); Chair of the Program Committee (1990-1991); Chairman of the Young Lawyers’ Section (1986-1987) and as Vice-Chairman, Secretary and Treasurer of the Young Lawyers Section, from 1983-1986. Mr. West concentrates his practice at Semmes representing small business investment companies and lending institutions. He represents both local and national companies doing business in Maryland, assisting them with their transactional needs and in complying with all applicable state and local regulations. Mr. West also maintains an active business litigation practice. Many attorneys from Semmes and guests attended the event, including U. S. District Court Chief Judge Benson Legg, U. S. District Court Judge J. Frederick Motz, U. S. District Court Judge William Nickerson, U. S. Bankruptcy Judge E. Stephen Derby, U. S. Bankruptcy Judge James F.
