What Membership Means
AALAM serves as a professional and social network for its members, who practice in all sectors of the legal profession. To that end, general membership meetings and events are held every month. In addition, AALAM works closely with the other minority bar associations in Massachusetts; the Boston Bar Association; the Massachusetts Bar Association; and the National Asian Pacific American Bar Association (NAPABA). Membership in AALAM automatically includes membership in NAPABA.

AALAM members are given access to the member-only, searchable directory so you can find other AALAM members, and leverage the powerful network of Asian American lawyers in Massachusetts. You will also have access to our members-only job listings to find great opportunities for Asian American attorneys across Massachusetts.
