Elder law attorneys of any age are eligible to join the Senior Lawyers Division.  Assist your aging clients and their families by receiving the latest information about changes to Social Security, Medicaid, Medicare, advance healthcare directives, senior housing alternatives, guardianship issues, among other topics covered in this relatively new area of practice.

The Senior Lawyers Division also offers a wide variety of programs and services for attorneys who have been in practice for at least 25 years. Receive useful information on financial and estate planning, tax and insurance matters, law partnership and Of Counsel agreements, pro bono work, and second careers (mediation and public service), and other topics
of interest to practicing senior lawyers.

Chair's Message

T. Maxfield Bahner
Chair, Senior Lawyers Division

Welcome to the Senior Lawyers Division of the American Bar Association. While we are known as the “Senior Division” membership is open to all members of the ABA of any age who are interested in the subject of Elder Law.

Through our committees we are engaged in many interesting things related to the practice of law and alternatives to law practice. While most of our members are active in law practice some have reached the point in their careers where they have cut back substantially and some have retired. Wherever you are along the continuum, whether a law student, a young lawyer interested in Elder Law or a senior lawyer, you will find great pleasure in the relationships in our Division.

We invite you to learn more about us and to join with us. We have good times together!
