Letter From the President

Welcome to the 2004 edition of the Monterey County Bar Association Directory. For the first time our directory is available online thus significantly enhancing its usefulness by our members and the general public including links to the individual websites of our members, grouping of members by firm and areas of practice as well as allowing for ease in updating our information.

This directory is a result of efforts of our executive committees over the last two years. We welcome your comments and suggestions for improvement in the directory.
