Interested in becoming active in the State Bar of Texas while in
law school? You can do so by joining the Law Student Division of
the State Bar of Texas. All practicing attorneys in Texas are required
to be a member of the State Bar of Texas. The Law Student Division
allows law students to become involved with the State Bar early
in their law career. I invite you to become a member of the Law
Student Division and establish great connections while benefiting
from the membership opportunities. Membership benefits include:
- One year subscription to the Texas Bar Journal: contains
up-to-date articles and information about Texas laws and Texas
attorneys

These are just a few of the benefits you will receive by joining

This is a great place to jumpstart your career in law and a great
networking opportunity. To join, stop by the Student Bar Association
