Founded in 1874, the Chicago Bar Association (CBA) is a voluntary bar association with over 20,000 members. Like other bar associations, it concerns itself with professional ethics, networking among members, and continuing legal education. It is located adjacent to the John Marshall Law School in the Chicago Loop.[1]

Notable members[]

Notable members included Illinois state representative (1922-46 and 1948-50) David Ivar Swanson and prominent attorney Earl B. Dickerson who argued Hansberry v. Lee before the Supreme Court.[2]
