The IBA, established in 1947, is the world’s leading organisation of international legal practitioners, bar associations and law societies. The IBA influences the development of international law reform and shapes the future of the legal profession throughout the world, whilst providing its members with unique international networking and professional development opportunities.
Through our new student membership initiative the IBA aims to enhance the study of law, by giving students access to the extensive range of academic and professional materials produced by the IBA – resources which are only available to IBA members. As well as some content specifically for students, such as opportunities to have work published, and competitions; all for the nominal charge of £20.
Additionally IBA membership covers a broad range of international legal practitioners, providing students with the opportunity to familiarise themselves with future employers. Our membership includes top international law firms such as: White & Case LLP, Simpson Thacher Bartlett LLP, Kirkland & Ellis LLP, Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP, Clifford Chance, Allen & Overy LLP, Slaughter and May, Linklaters, and Freshfields Bruckhaus Deringer LLP; as well as 195 bar associations and law societies; over 45,000 individual lawyers; over 1,000 corporate counsel members representing hundreds of multinational corporations including Coca-Cola, IBM, Exxon-Mobil and AT&T; and now law students.
