The Property Bar Association is the professional body for Barristers in England, Wales and Northern Ireland and advocates in Scotland who are able to certify in writing that not less than half of the matters that they deal with concern property or property-related work.

The PBA offers a programme of educational lectures and seminars for established practitioners throughout the legal year.

We also have a regular training series aimed specifically at young practitioners (pupils and newly qualified barristers).

Our flagship event is our annual mini-conference and reception, held in November. The conference typically comprises:

A keynote lecture, often given by a senior member of the judiciary.
A series of interactive workshops on diverse topical issues of interest led by experienced specialists from a variety of backgrounds associated with property law (including barristers, solicitors, surveyors, academics, representatives from the Law Commission and Her Majesty's Land Registry).
A final lecture, again presented by a leading figure.
Our AGM.
The PBA enjoys good working relations with other associated professional bodies, in particular the Property Litigation Association (with whom we jointly stage events) and the Chancery Bar Association.
Recognised as one of the Specialist Bar Associations by the Bar Council, the PBA has a voice on the Bar Council and is represented at frequent Bar Council meetings and we also take part in Law Reform Consultations with the object of promoting and defending the interests of our members.

In addition to our educational activities, we acknowledge that social interaction between fellow professionals involved and interested in property law is great fun and ought to be facilitated. To this end we stage an annual summer garden party and also put on a black-tie dinner every December, to which events all members are most warmly invited.
