Bar Associations exist on the state level, and most serve the purpose of licensing attorneys at law. The licensing process involves testing for competence in general areas of law and in certain areas of law, and on laws that are specific to the state.
Bar associations are also concerned with ethical issues and most are empowered to regulate licensees from that standpoint as well.
There also exist "voluntary bar associations" which are organizations that attract lawyers that have something in common--for example, race or national origin. As the name suggests, membership is not required, but they do attempt to further the interests of the membership, who pay a fee to join.
