SERVING OUR MEMBERS AND OUR COMMUNITY Since 1948
The Gate City Bar Association is the oldest African-American Bar Association in the State of Georgia.
I am deeply honored and excited to serve as the 2025 President of the Gate City Bar Association. As we step boldly into this new chapter, I want to express my gratitude to our members, sponsors, and partners whose unwavering support has allowed Gate City to thrive as a pillar of excellence and service in the legal profession.
Our theme this year, “Forward,” reflects our commitment to building on the rich legacy of Gate City while paving the way for innovation, inclusion, and progress. Together, we will continue to empower legal professionals, advocate for justice, and uplift the communities we serve.

With your support, we will move Forward—strengthening our impact, inspiring future generations, and continuing to lead with purpose and integrity. Thank you for being part of this journey. Let’s make this year one of transformative growth and unparalleled success!
The Gate City Bar Association was organized by ten African-American lawyers to provide the educational, social and community involvement of a professional association for African-American lawyers. This year we celebrate our 75th anniversary of service to our members, the legal profession and the community.
The Gate City Bar Association’s purpose is rooted in service. In furtherance of our purpose, we work diligently to serve the legal profession and the community through our programs and volunteerism. Among our many other programs and initiatives, we:
Provide continuing legal education programs to the legal community.
Participate in the selection of federal, state, and local judges.
Coordinate the efforts of our members to promote the welfare of the community.
Part of our mission is to encourage persons of outstanding promise to attend first-rate law schools and return to the communities that need their services most. We are dedicated to helping these individual succeed and serve through our annual Summer Law Camp for high school students, through our Summer Associate Program and career workshops for law students and by awarding scholarships each year at our Hall of Fame Gala.
