Bill Hebert Is a Candidate for President of the California State Bar Board of Governors

The June 2010 issue of the California Bar Journal reports that Calvo & Clark’s William Hebert is a candidate for the presidency of the State Bar Board of Governors. “Civil litigator Hebert, a partner with Calvo & Clark, places his focus on maximizing benefits — public protection for consumers of legal services and the member benefits provided by CalBar Connect for lawyers. As the current chairman of the board’s discipline committee, Hebert also would like to shepherd several initiatives into practice, particularly new rules for the State Bar Court that he says will streamline the discipline process, lower costs and ultimately benefit the bar and its members.”

The Recorder reported in its blog on May 17, 2010, that Hebert was a candidate: “Executive Director Judy Johnson announced Saturday that five members of the State Bar Board of Governors intend to seek the presidency … The other members of the State Bar Board of Governors will choose the new president during their July 24 meeting in Los Angeles.”
