The Federal Bar Association (FBA) 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.

Benefits include:

- Access to a network of federal practitioners that reaches all 50 states.

- The opportunity to network and exchange information with federal practitioners in your local area through Chapter membership.

- A voice in Washington. The FBA is the foremost voice on behalf of federal practitioners. Whether its working with an oversight agency on new regulations that could impact federal practice or acting as an advocate on a particular initiative – the FBA advances effective practice before the federal bench.

- Continuing legal education (CLE) – over 700 hours! The FBA offers annually more than 700 hours of continuing legal education on the national, regional, and local levels. FBA members receive substantial discounts on registration.

- Leadership opportunities. There are many leadership opportunities available at the local, state, and national level. Your participation as a leader in a national association not only will enhance your membership experience, but will also give you cutting-edge knowledge of current developments in the federal practitioner’s arena.
