MSBA Attorney Security Pass

Description

We’ve Upgraded! The Maryland State Bar Association Courthouse Identification Pass is now the MSBA Attorney Security Pass. The new Attorney Security Pass has been enhanced to include added security features and be more durable. If you have an existing, yellow Courthouse Identification Pass, it is still valid through the expiration date on the card. You will be issued the new card when you renew your pass.
