About JAA
History of the Judge Advocates Association
The Judge Advocates Association is a national professional society organized
in 1943 by a small group of Army judge advocates in Washington, D.C.
Over more than fifty years of existence, the membership has broadened
and is now composed of active duty and retired judge advocates of all
services as well as private practitioners of military and veterans’ law.
The Judge Advocates Association is the only national professional legal
organization exclusively dedicated to judge advocates and practitioners
of military and veterans’ law.
It is a constant voice for the community it serves. As an affiliate of
the American Bar Association, the Judge Advocates Association is a member
having a vote in the ABA House of Delegates and has raised many issues
of concern to judge advocates and practitioners of military and veterans’
law.
