The FFA has a decade-long history of service to the federal bench and bar, and I am dedicated to enhancing that legacy,” Chanin said. “I am deeply committed to the core mission of the FFA – promoting the highest levels of professionalism, advocacy and ethics in federal court.”
The FFA is an organization of more than 600 federal bar practitioners founded 10 years ago at the behest of U.S. District Court Judge Richard P. Matsch and is dedicated to increasing the level of advocacy and professionalism in the District of Colorado courts and enhancing the integrity of federal judicial system. The FFA serves as a liaison between the federal bench and the practicing bar, provides on-going continuing legal education opportunities, and administers a court-sponsored pro bono and mentoring program.
