Minnesota State Bar Association

The Minnesota State Bar Association promotes the highest standards of excellence and inclusion within the legal profession, provides valued resources to its members, and strives to improve the law and the equal administration of justice for all. The Minnesota State Bar Association was established in 1883. A lot has changed since then, but today an essential part of our mission remains as it was in the beginning. The MSBA is where Minnesota lawyers connect--to teach, to learn, to confront challenges and navigate changing times together. Through their collective voices and experiences, MSBA members continue to advocate for the legal profession at the courts and the legislature. Licensed attorneys, in Minnesota or elsewhere, can become a member of the MSBA. Law students, paralegals, and law management associates are also welcome.
