A handful of lawyers has formed the Brookhaven Bar Association to unite the legal community in that metro Atlanta city.

“This whole association is about meeting our neighbors,” said Bryan Knight, who came up with the idea for the new organization and is serving as its president. “There are larger associations like the State Bar [and the] Atlanta Bar, but Brookhaven is a smaller community with a lot of lawyers. So the impetus of forming the bar was seeing what the Sandy Springs Bar Association has done. They’ve been around quite a while and have a tight-knit group of lawyers, and I thought the new bar association would be an asset for the city of Brookhaven.”
