About LGBTQ+ Lawyers Association of Los Angeles

In exercising our strength as a Bar Association, the LGBTQ+ Lawyers Association of Los Angeles strives to provide a strong leadership presence of and for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, and all other persons of sexuality and gender expansive identities in the legal profession and in the community at large, through education, legal advocacy, and participation in political and civic activities and social functions.

The LGBTQ+ Lawyers Association of Los Angeles (“LGBTQ+ Lawyers LA”), was founded in 1979 under the original designation, Lawyers for Human Rights.

Today, LGBTQ+ Lawyers LA continues its mission to advocate for the concerns of gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender lawyers by making judicial endorsements, writing and signing on to amicus briefs, and providing education, networking, and social opportunities for its members. LGBTQ+ Lawyers LA is also an active member of The Multicultural Bar Alliance of Southern California, which is an affiliation of more than fifteen minority bar associations working to promote diversity in the profession and the community.
