American Bar Association Offers Free Membership to New Military Lawyers
Apr 25 2008
The American Bar Association (ABA) has undertaken several initiatives to support and recognize military lawyers. The ABA recently announced it’s offering free memberships to judge advocates in their first five years of law practice. This is a savings of hundreds of dollars in membership fees.
Though not required, in addition to joining the ABA, attorneys can join ABA divisions and sections specific to their interests and practice. The general practice, solo, and small firm division (the division that hosts the Military Law Committee and is the self-proclaimed “home of the military lawyer”) is currently waiving dues for new judge advocate members for one year.
For more information or to take advantage of this offer, please contact the ABA Service Center at (800) 285-2221 or visit www.abanet.org/join/jag.
