Now Online: Fall 2025 Issue of Columbus Bar Lawyers Quarterly 

The Columbus Bar Association is proud to announce the online publication of the Fall 2025 issue of the Columbus Bar Lawyers Quarterly — a must-read for Central Ohio’s legal community. 

This newest edition continues the quarterly tradition of illuminating timely legal issues, spotlighting central Ohio practitioners, and strengthening our legal community with knowledge and connection. 

Read, Reflect, and Connect 

In an era of accelerating change and complexity in law, staying informed is not optional — it is essential. The Lawyers Quarterly serves as a trusted forum for Central Ohio lawyers  to engage with the issues shaping our profession. Whether it’s dissecting a cutting-edge legal doctrine, navigating evolving regulations, or reflecting on the professional and ethical challenges we face, this issue invites you to absorb and apply insights for your practice. 

As legal professionals, we each bear a duty — to our clients, to the justice system, and to one another. Supporting the CBA and its publications is one tangible way we fulfill that duty. Every subscriber, every author, and every reader contributes to a stronger, more connected legal community. 

By reading the Fall 2025 issue, you: 

  • Gain perspective from your peers across specialties; 
  • Benchmark your thinking against ideas emerging in real-time law practice; 
  • Discover new collaborators, mentors, or co-authors among Central Ohio’s bench and bar; and 
  • Reinforce your commitment to excellence and shared responsibility in the profession.
