About The Alabama Lawyer
The Alabama Lawyer is a publication of the Alabama State Bar. In addition to keeping members up to date on the latest changes in various laws/rules and how they affect their practice, it also provides members and the public a way to keep current with Alabama State Bar activities, policies/procedures, and information pertaining to other bar members.
Note: The Board of Bar Commissioners recently approved a change to the publication schedule of The Alabama Lawyer. Beginning Jan. 2025, the magazine will be published quarterly instead of bi-monthly. This adjustment allows us to continue delivering high-quality content while adapting to the evolving needs of our members. We appreciate your readership and look forward to bringing you insightful legal articles and updates in each issue.
