The American Bar Association is a national professional association for lawyers that builds and shares resources to support legal practice. It serves lawyers by providing continuing legal education, ethics guidance, publications, standards, and policy advocacy.

The organization differentiates itself from other groups by its breadth, scale, and authority as a leading publisher of ethics opinions and model rules, plus its extensive policy work and education programs that influence the legal profession. Its goal is to improve the legal profession and the justice system by supporting lawyers, advancing the rule of law, and providing guidance that shapes practice and ethics.
