No. Much of WisBar is accessible without logging in. We only ask you to log in when you are in For Members areas, executing financial transactions -- buying a book or registering for a seminar -- accessing secure member information, or when you are changing information contained in your user profile.

Click on Log In. The log in form will ask you for either an email address or membership number, and your password.

Email address is the address that is in your State Bar profile. If you are a member of the State Bar of Wisconsin, and do not know which email address we have on file for you, go to our Lawyer Search and look up your record. If you are not a member of the State Bar and do not know the email address on your profile, contact Customer Service.

Membership number is your State Bar of Wisconsin membership number. If your membership number begins with a zero, such as 01020356, enter the number without the leading zero, like 1020356. If you are a member of the State Bar of Wisconsin, and do not know your membership number, go to our Lawyer Directory and look up your record. If you are not a member of the State Bar and do not know your membership number, contact Customer Service.

If you know your email address, but do not know your password, you can reset it by using the Forgot your password? page. On the Forgot your password? page, you will need to enter the email address that is in your State Bar profile. Once you submit the form, an email message containing instructions on resetting your password will be sent to that address. If you do not get an email with these instructions, or do not have an email address on file, contact Customer Service.

Click on the 'Your are logged in as {your name}. Select the Sign Out option from the drop down menu. You will be given a message window that you have logged out that you can close.

After you log in, go to myStateBar and go to the Password change section to submit your password change.
