The Iowa State Bar Association is a non-profit professional organization serving Iowa lawyers by offering continuing legal education, practice aids, and access to judicial and legislative engagement. It supports collaboration among a broad cross-section of members, including practicing attorneys, those in government and business, newly licensed lawyers, retirees, residents and nonresidents, and members of the judiciary. With a history dating back to 1874, it positions itself as the oldest voluntary state bar association in the United States and serves approximately 8,000 lawyers and judges across Iowa’s counties and beyond. Based in Des Moines, Iowa, the organization provides updates on legal developments, facilitates reform discussions, and publishes information relevant to the profession. A recent development includes the launch of a Judicial Performance Review, which evaluates the professionalism and demeanor of judges facing retention votes.
