SABA-DC plays an active role in advancing members of the Washington, DC legal community by endorsing candidates for important legal positions, such as bench and bar leadership positions.

Candidates for judicial nominations, Bar leadership, and senior government appointments seeking an endorsement from the South Asian Bar Association are encouraged to send their request to SABADCPresident@gmail.com.  Please write "[ENDORSEMENT REQUEST]" in the Subject line, and inform us of deadlines and addressees in the body of your message.  

The request will be reviewed by the SABA-DC Endorsements committee, which will make a recommendation to the Board as to whether SABA-DC should endorse the candidate.  Factors considered by the Endorsements Committee include the candidate's qualifications, past accomplishments, a demonstrated interest in or commitment to the South Asian community, and any past work with the South Asian Bar.  Candidates should inform SABA-DC of any endorsement deadlines in their request.
