The Ohio State Bar Association, founded in 1880, is a voluntary professional association open to any person who has been admitted to the practice of law. Law school students, paralegal students, and paralegals and legal administrators are eligible for membership in the OSBA as associate members. 

The OSBA represents more than 25,000 Ohio lawyers and judges, nearly 68 percent of Ohio law practitioners. Total membership is about 30,000, which includes associate members.

From the date of its founding until today, the Association’s working goals have been to:

    * advance the science of jurisprudence;
    * promote improvement of the law and administration of justice;
    * uphold integrity, honor and courtesy in the legal profession and 
       encourage and enforce adherence to high standards of professional 
       conduct;
    * take positions on matters of public interest as deemed advisable;
    * encourage thorough legal education
    * cultivate cordial relations among members of the Bar; and
    * perpetuate the history of the profession and the Association. 

As Ohio’s largest network of legal professionals, the OSBA’s mission is to improve access to justice for all Ohioans, advance the legal profession and advocate for our members.

Our core values are member satisfaction, professionalism, foresight, and quality services and products. Our goal is to make membership in the Ohio State Bar Association indispensable to Ohio lawyers.
