Law Day
Law Day 2026
Each year, the American Bar Association, along with other bar associations and law-related organizations around the United States recognize Law Day on May 1. Law Day celebrates the role of law in our society and cultivates a deeper understanding of the legal profession. While Law Day is officially observed on May 1 of each year, Law Day projects are held throughout the month of May.
The theme for the 2026 Law Day is “The Rule of Law and the American Dream.”
This year, the State Bar of Georgia Committee on Professionalism and Local and Voluntary Bar Committee will collaborate to promote Law Day activities throughout each of Georgia’s 10 judicial districts. Elected and/or appointed officials and attorneys from Georgia’s 10 judicial districts are invited to discuss this year’s theme by visiting a high school government class or serving as a guest speaker at a civic or community meeting (i.e. Rotary, Kiwanis, sorority or fraternity, Junior League, faith-based organization, etc.) Lawyers or judges who are interested in participating may schedule a Law Day presentation during days and times that best fit their schedules throughout the month of May.
The State Bar of Georgia Committee on Professionalism will provide the talking points for participants in the State Bar of Georgia’s Law Day 2026 initiatives. Participating lawyers and judges are asked to pick a group to whom you want to speak about Law Day during the month of May 2026, and make arrangements to speak to the group, then:
- Let us know the date and the name of the group to whom you will present.
- Send us a photo of you making your presentation regarding Law Day (if you are speaking to minors, please ensure your photos do not show their faces).
- If you have questions about the State Bar’s Law Day 2026 initiatives, please contact the State Bar of Georgia’s Professionalism Committee Law Day Subcommittee Chair Denise Warner.
