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.
“I have volunteered for the MBA’s monthly Dial-A-Lawyer program for the past five years. In that time, it has been a privilege to help so many people by answering their legal questions big and small. Many of these people would not normally have access to legal help for their problems. Thanks to the Dial-A-Lawyer, we can help these underserved members of our community by providing free and anonymous legal advice to help them deal with their problems and, hopefully, improve their lives.”
