The Palestinian Bar Association (Arabic: النقابة الفلسطينية للمحامين) is an organization that represents lawyers in the State of Palestine.
The Palestinian Bar Association was founded in 1973, during the period of the Palestine Liberation Organization's (PLO) armed struggle against Israel.
[1][2] The Palestinian Bar Association is governed by a council that is elected by its members every three years.
The council is responsible for setting the Association's policies and priorities, and for overseeing its activities.
It has also established partnerships with legal organizations in other countries, such as the American Bar Association and the Law Society of England and Wales.
