About American Bar Association

americanbar.org

The American Bar Association (ABA) is a nationwide, voluntary professional association of lawyers, judges, and law students that serves as a leading voice for the U.S. legal profession. As a nonprofit, the ABA advances the rule of law and access to justice through advocacy, policy work, model ethics rules and opinions, and pro bono and diversity initiatives. It provides professional development and credentialing—offering continuing legal education, conferences, practice resources and publications (including the ABA Journal)—and oversees accreditation and standards for U.S. legal education. Members rely on the ABA for networking, career services, practice guidance, and leadership on legal reform.
