Membership
Application
Membership in the KBA offers law students the opportunity to
learn about the actual practice of law.
At the KBA Annual Meeting in December 2002, the
membership of the Knoxville Bar Association unanimously voted to support the
bylaws change proposed to open our ranks to law students. The following language
was approved:
Any law student currently attending or
enrolled in a law school shall be eligible to become an associate member of
the Association, subject to such rules and upon payment of such dues as may
be further determined by the Board. Any such associate member shall not be
eligible to hold office in the Association and shall have no voting rights
whatsoever, whether in any meetings, elections, activities or other
functions of the members of the Association, but shall otherwise be entitled
to all of the other rights and privileges of membership in the Association.
The membership dues have been set at $25 per year
which will allow you to receive a copy of all of our publications, including the
monthly newsletter and the Annual Attorney's Directory. As a member, you are
welcome to participate in any KBA activity and pay the reduced member rate if
there is a registration fee. I think you'll agree with me that the cost/benefit
ratio of dues to membership privileges vastly favors becoming a KBA student
member. The cost of the publications you will receive alone is more than the
student membership dues you will pay.
As a member of The Knoxville Bar Association, you will receive
timely, practice-related information and will have access to networks and
resources that can assist in enhancing your professional and personal growth.
Join today and reap the benefits of belonging to an association that has your
needs in mind.
