WHERE WE STARTED |
The South Asian Bar Association of Chicago ("SABA Chicago") was established on September 13, 2000, when it held its inaugural reception in the James Parsons Ceremonial Courtroom at the federal courthouse in Chicago.
The Honorable Marvin E. Aspen, Chief Judge of the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Illinois, administered the oath of office to the SABA Chicago’s officers and directors. Since that reception, the officers and directors of SABA Chicago have actively engaged in steering the association to serve the legal community.
Our mission includes promoting the professional growth of our members; mentoring law students and new lawyers, providing services to our local community; ensuring the well-being of our members, and partnering with other bar organizations to further the goals of our collective goals.
