So, you passed the bar. Congratulations! You may be among the lucky ones to have landed a great job, or perhaps you are still looking for the right fit. You may have even joined a bar association or two, like the Pennsylvania Bar Association or Philadelphia Bar Association. But you may also be wondering whether you should spend your time which seems to be in short supply these days getting involved with an affinity bar association as well. Membership in an affinity bar association may be worthwhile and for more reasons than you might think.
While there are several affinity bar associations, this article provides an overview of three of the largest in our area: the Asian Pacific American Bar Association of Pennsylvania (APABA-PA), the Barristers’ Association of Philadelphia and the Hispanic Bar Association of Pennsylvania (HBA-PA).
