Answer:

What is Washington State Bar Association mean?

The Washington State Bar Association (WSBA) operates under the delegated authority of the Washington Supreme Court to license the state's nearly 41,000 active and inactive lawyers and other legal professionals. In furtherance of its obligation to protect and serve the public, the WSBA both regulates lawyers and other legal professionals and serves its members as a professional association — all without public funding. The WSBA's mission is to serve the public and the members of the Bar, to ensure the integrity of the legal profession, and to champion justice.

Kyle D. Sciuchetti is the President of WSBA. He, along with 14 members of the Board of Governors and WSBA's Executive Director Terra Nevitt, make up the Bar's governance. President Sciuchetti, previously served on the Board of Governors representing the 3rd Federal Congressional District after being elected to represent the members in 2017. Rajeev D. Majumdar is the Immediate Past President and former governor representing the 2nd Federal Congressional District.

WSBA is the first state bar in the United States to issue alternative licenses to practice law for practitioners who are not lawyers. The Washington Supreme Court on June 15, 2012, issued an order adopting the Limited License Legal Technician (LLLT) Rule, directing WSBA to create a license that allows trained professionals to practice law on a limited basis as a means to further access to justice for those who cannot afford a lawyer. In March 2013 the Court approved family law as the first practice area authorized for limited license legal technicians under the Court's Admission and Practice Rule (APR) 28. The first group of legal technicians were licensed in 2015. As of March 20, 2018, 31 active legal technicians were license to practice in Washington state.

WSBA also administers, under APR 12, the Limited Practice Officer (LPO) license for nonlawyers to select, prepare, and complete approved documents for use in closing a loan, extension of credit, sale, or other transfer of real or personal property. As of March 20, 2018, there were 796 active LPOs licensed to practice in Washington state.
