The Cobb County Bar Association is an award winning association of attorneys dedicated to the betterment of society. The Cobb Bar has won the award for "Best Bar Association in Georgia" numerous times from the State Bar of Georgia. An outstanding organization that also has a philanthropic motivation, the Cobb Bar raises money for charity under its "Community Service Fund" and "Children's Emergency Fund." Both funds provide money to families in dire need. The Cobb Bar also raises money through the Grubbs Memorial Golf Tournament for scholarships to college for deserving graduates of Marietta High School and to date has awarded more than $200,000 in scholarships. The Cobb Bar also provides referrals to Cobb Legal Aid, a related organization, which is funded in part by the generosity of member lawyers and donations from the Cobb Bar itself, and also refers cases to local attorneys when asked. These are only some of the reasons why the Cobb County Bar Association was called out publicly in a speech by a member of the Board of Governors of the State Bar of Georgia as the "greatest local bar association in the United States."
