Pittsburgh Divorce Attorney Candice L. Komar Elected Chair of PBA Family Law Section

PITTSBURGH - EntSun -- Pollock Begg Partner Candice L. Komar was elected to serve as chair of the Pennsylvania Bar Association Family Law Section at the PBA Family Law Section 2026 summer meeting in Chicago.

The PBA is a voluntary professional membership organization representing nearly 1,000 family law practitioners and law students across the commonwealth. The Family Law Section focuses its efforts on the development and practical application of the law related to marriage, divorce, support and custody, as well as other domestic matters including adoption, assisted reproduction technology, parentage, LGBTQ and juvenile issues.

Komar has previously served as chair-elect, first vice-chair, second vice-chair, secretary and treasurer for the Family Law Section.

"What I've always valued about the Family Law Section is the spirit of practitioners helping practitioners, whether through mentoring newer attorneys, weighing in on court rules or advocating for sensible reforms," Komar said. "I see how that work ultimately benefits families across Pennsylvania, and I'm proud to be a part of it."
