Sections are entities of the Bar created by the Board to further the Bar's mission to serve justice and the public interest by promoting respect for the rule of law, improving the quality of services, and increasing access to justice. Sections are governed by section executive committees and strive to provide Bar members who share interests in particular substantive areas of law with a forum for improving legal skills and knowledge, improving the law and administration of justice, exchanging ideas and information, and engaging in pro bono service and other activities to increase access to justice.
