Incorporated in 1911, the Massachusetts Bar Association (MBA) is a non-profit organization that serves the legal profession and the public by promoting the administration of justice, legal education, professional excellence and respect for the law. A voluntary association, the MBA represents a diverse group of attorneys, judges and legal professionals across the commonwealth.
“When I first joined the MBA I was surprised by all it had to offer. The opportunity to meet and network with lawyers across the state is priceless; I have been able to discuss cases with lawyers I would not have otherwise met. The MBA has also been on the front line of issues concerning all practitioners, whether it is court funding, the drug lab scandal or legislative changes. I wish I had gotten involved with the MBA sooner in my 22-year career. The resources it has to offer would have helped me greatly when I was just starting my practice.”
