Mission of the Catholic Bar Association

Catholic Bar Association is a community of legal professionals that educates, organizes and inspires its members to faithfully uphold and bear witness to the Catholic Faith in the study and practice of the law.

The National Catholic Legal Organization that Unites, Evangelizes, Grows and Supports Catholic Lawyers and related Professionals

FACT:

There are over 60 Independent local or regional Catholic Lawyers organizations but NO National Organization to provide support and to encourage new chapters.

Purpose:

  1. To uphold the principles of the Catholic faith in the practice of law.
  2. To assist the Church in the work of communicating Catholic legal principles to the legal profession and society at large.
  3.  To support Catholic attorneys in faithfully applying Catholic ethical principles in the practice of law.
  4. To enable Catholic attorneys to know one another better and to work together with deeper mutual support and understanding.
