Muslim Bar Association Celebrates 10 Year Anniversary
2008 marks the MBA's 10 year anniversary. The MBA official launched in February 1998 after 10 months of organizing and planning.
The Muslim lawyers landscape has changed dramatically since 1998. Back then there were only a handful of young Muslim lawyers and those who were established were spread out and only nominally networked through other associations and religious affiliations.
Today there are over 100 Muslim lawyers working in the metropolitan Chicagoland region. The Muslim lawyer community today is diverse in race, ethnicity and practice setting. MBA members are partners in small, medsized and large law firms, they hold senior counsel positions with numerous corporations and they serve as assistant state's attorneys, public defenders and with other state and federal agencies.
The MBA continues to grow. As our membership increases, so to does our capacity to do important work in the community.
Please contact us via email if you would like to join the Muslim Bar Association.
