Illinois Government Bar Association

Founded in 1987, the Illinois Government Bar Association (ILGBA) was created to serve the needs of Illinois lawyers working in the state’s public sector. It accomplished this by acting as a professional network for its members, giving them a way to easily connect and learn from each other.

While the Illinois Government Bar Association is primarily concerned with the interests of its members, the public can access the bar’s association’s online membership directory. The bar association also offers a scholarship to Illinois law students interested in government service.

Illinois Government Bar Association members are automatically listed in the bar association’s online database. They also receive access to networking events and the bar association’s newsletter. ILGBA members can also participate in the bar association’s governance by running for office and recruiting and reviewing new membership applications.
