| Delaware Bar Association |
| The 80-plus year
history of the Delaware
State Bar Association is marked by evolving efforts to
promote ethical conduct by lawyers, to require and offer high
quality continuing legal education, to protect the public
from the unauthorized practice of law, to review and make
recommendations regarding Delaware's court system, and to
foster the mentoring of new lawyers. Service to the public
is another hallmark of the Association. Encouraging and facilitating
pro bono work, providing a lawyer referral service,
and offering various legal handbooks are a few examples of
its efforts in public outreach. The Association has also remained
true to one of its earliest goals, "the cultivation of
fraternal relationships among the lawyers of Delaware."
