Welcome to the Virgin Islands Bar Association  

We are an integrated Bar Association with approximately 850 members practicing within the United States Territory of the Virgin Islands.  The Territory is located in the Lesser Antilles of the Caribbean and consists primarily of the islands of St. Croix, St. John and St. Thomas along with numerous lesser cays. 
 

The Virgin Islands Bar Association along with The Supreme Court of the Virgin Islands governs the practice of law in the U.S. Virgin Islands. Our mission is to promote improvements in the administration of justice, and to monitor and advocate public policy issues affecting the judicial system.    We also work to improve the community through public education and public service.  These twin goals are reflected in our motto “Striving for Justice… Serving our community”.  
 

This site contains information related to individual members of our association, including their practice areas and contact information.  It also provides a calendar of events, news and other information about the Bar Association and its members.    

           We hope you enjoy the conveniences of this website.  If you would like to contact the Bar Association directly you may do so by calling us at 340-778-7497 or email us at executivedirector@vibar.org
