Hello, Bar Leaders!
We are proud to provide the SBM 2019-2020 Affinity Bar Directory! We hope you find this directory useful in communicating and connecting with other affinity bars and also helping the public connect with lawyers in your area.
Please don’t forget the State Bar offers several resources to affinity bar associations like yours, including visits from SBM President Dennis Barnes and/or SBM staff to keep your membership informed and engaged with programs and initiatives around the state. Also available are free membership lists, links to your website and social media accounts hosted by the SBM website, and the online events calendar for your bar association activities and special events located at https://www.michbar.org/news/calendar.
We are now using a Wufoo survey to receive updated officer information for affinity bar associations. You can update your officers’ information any time at https://michbar.wufoo.com/forms/m1yu4ijk0wvoc6g/
We hope to see you in your community throughout the year, whenever you visit Lansing, and at the Bar Leadership Forum in June:
The Bar Leadership ForumJune 12 and 13, 2020
Grand Hotel, Mackinac Island
Please contact us if you have any questions or ideas. We really enjoy hearing from you and working with you.
Thank you.

Guidelines for the Programs and Services Commissioners Committee Regarding Recognition
of Local and Special Purpose Bar Associations (Adopted by the SBM Board of Commissioners) Revised July 2006
Recognition of local and special purpose bar associations, listings of local and special purpose bar associations in the Directory Edition of the Michigan Bar Journal, participation in the local bar President-elect conference sponsored by the State Bar of Michigan, and involvement in related State Bar activities shall be limited to associations which comply with the following conditions:
1. The primary purposes and activities of the association shall be to seek to aid in promoting improvements in the administration of justice and advancements in jurisprudence, to improve relations between the legal profession and the public, and to promote the interests of the local legal community.
2. A copy of the bylaws or charters of such associations shall be filed with the State Bar, and any change in said bylaws or charters should be filed within ten (10) days after its adoption.
3. It shall have a presidential year that ends between the dates of April 30 and June 30.
4. The name of the bar association shall not be misleading or deceptive.
5. Each local bar association shall hold at least one general meeting per year.
6. All local bar associations shall be divided as follows:
(a) General purpose local bar associations, and
(b) Special purpose bar associations.
7. Membership in general purpose local bar associations may not be limited by requirements, other than geographical, the principal objective of which is unrelated to the purposes and activities set forth in (1) above.
8. Membership in special purpose associations may not be limited by requirements, other than geographical, the principal objective of which is unrelated to the purposes and activities set forth in (1) above, except as follows:
(a) Statements of emphasis on specific areas of practice of law are permissible.
(b) Associations may require affiliation through bylaw or other membership limitation to a parent association, which has been recognized as a special purpose association, or to a local bar association that has been recognized as a general purpose local bar association. (The affiliate special purpose associations shall be recognized only in conjunction with such a parent or local bar association. In all affairs pertaining to recognized bar associations and the State Bar of Michigan only the vote of the parent or local bar association shall be considered.)
(c) Associations may be limited to members holding or having held public office such as the judges’ association, prosecutors’ associations, etc. restricting membership to those persons having held or who now hold such offices.
(d) Associations may express interest in particular racial or ethnic heritage, but may not invidiously discriminate by excluding anyone seeking membership who shares that interest solely on grounds of race, color, gender, national origin, religion, age, handicap or sexual orientation.
It is the intent of these guidelines to include other bar associations in the work and activities of the State Bar of Michigan. Uncertainties in the application of these guidelines to the bylaws of a bar association should generally be resolved in favor of inclusion.
