Welcome to the Southern District of New York Chapter of the Federal Bar Association! We are proud to serve the Southern District, first convened on November 3, 1789, the oldest, largest, and most prestigious federal trial court in the land.
We are not the only bar association in New York City. We are not even the only bar association serving federal practitioners in New York City. But we aim to be the most responsive to our Court , to our members, and to the public interest. We want you to join us!
Why the FBA?
The Federal Bar Association (FBA), founded in 1920, is dedicated to the advancement of the science of jurisprudence and to promoting the welfare, interests, education, and professional development of all attorneys involved in federal law. Our members run the gamut of federal practice: attorneys practicing in small to large legal firms, attorneys in corporations and federal agencies, and members of the judiciary. The FBA is the catalyst for communication between the bar and the bench, as well as the private and public sectors.
Join us. Feel free to call or email any of our officers to talk about opportunities. Our monthly meetings are open to all members.
