Sidebar Magazine

 

Sidebar is suburban Philadelphia’s most widely read legal publication and the official quarterly magazine of the Montgomery Bar Association.

This popular, full-color quarterly addresses and explores issues relevant to the legal profession and their commitment to strengthening Montgomery County communities, where over 2,000 members of the Bar live and practice. Articles include thought-provoking features, updates, and advancements on a broad range of legal issues that impact businesses and individuals; member engagement in communities and organizations; individual or group accomplishments, and recognition and fellowship activities within the membership. Members, legal administrators, and others also turn to SideBar for its popular and insightful restaurant and entertainment reviews, practical practice tips, suppliers, solutions, and more.

Sidebar is mailed directly to over 2,000 members of the Montgomery Bar Association each quarter, as well as to surrounding bar associations; 800+ professional, medical and dental waiting rooms, and to nearly 500 business and community leaders, located throughout Montgomery County (circ. 3,500+).
