The Oklahoma Bar Association was formed in 1904 and has a rich history of serving lawyers and the public.
The OBA offers many community service programs designed to help Oklahomans. It offers basic legal information for consumers on its website, organizes extensive Law Day activities and sponsors other law-related educational programs. As part of the goal to protect the public, the OBA Office of the General Counsel investigates complaints against lawyers and prosecutes lawyers who have committed ethical violations.
The Oklahoma Bar Association is governed by a 17-member Board of Governors whose members are lawyers elected by bar members.
The OBA is located in the State Capitol Complex at 1901 N. Lincoln Boulevard in Oklahoma City. Its mailing address is P.O. Box 53036, Oklahoma City, OK 73152. The main phone number is 405-416-7000 or toll-free 800-522-8065.
The Oklahoma Bar Association is an arm of the Oklahoma Supreme Court and does not receive any appropriations from the Oklahoma Legislature. The association receives no public or tax-related revenues. The organization's activities are wholly funded through membership dues, grants and other self-generated revenue.
