Esquire Bank "Banks" PRBA

In July 2010, Esquire Bank announced the execution of an exclusive agreement with the Puerto Rican Bar Association (PRBA) where Esquire Bank is the "Bank of Choice" for PRBA and its membership.

What "Bank of Choice" means for PRBA Members

  • Members are entitled to a classic private bank experience with Esquire Bank, where members are treated like valued clients rather than customers—a practice long forgotten by "too big to fail" banks.
  • Members can engage with a bank that understands the unique needs and pressures that law professionals face. Esquire Bank's attorney-related products and services focus on the requirements of members' businesses.
  • Members can feel comfortable dealing with a bank that does not support tort reform. Rather, Esquire Bank's interests are directly aligned with those of law professionals, both politically and business-wise.

In support of our alignment, PRBA has moved its business banking to Esquire Bank. In addition, PRBA members enjoy exclusive benefits from this relationship.

In fact, our interests are so aligned with PRBA, we will give a contribution to PRBA each time the Bank receives a deposit attributable to its membership; Simply put, participation by members of PRBA in Esquire Bank's products and services means direct financial support for PRBA's mission.

How do PRBA members benefit from the "Bank of Choice"

  • Esquire aims to be a Fee Free Bank – our ultimate goal is to eliminate the monthly fees that pick away at your capital. At Esquire, members have the opportunity to enjoy this refreshing contrast to today's "too big to fail" bank practices.
  • Members are treated as special – you are our client and will be assigned a personal private banker. Without you we cannot exist, unlike the "too big to fail" banks.
  • Members have access to business products and services at pricing exclusive to PRBA members – members also have access to co-branding marketing opportunities
  • Members have access to ATTORNEY ADVANTAGE CHECKING, which offers amazing rates and unlimited ATM fee refunds!

We invite you to give Esquire Bank a try and experience what PRBA has already discovered!!

About PRBA

The Puerto Rican Bar Association, Inc. (PRBA) was founded in 1957 by a group of Puerto Rican and Latino attorneys who began gathering socially to offer one another both personal and professional support in an era when it was difficult for attorneys of color to be accepted as members in established bar associations. The PRBA at that time focused its efforts on addressing the concerns of a rapidly growing Latino community and the legal services it required. Today, the PRBA has grown from a handful of attorney to over 500 members representing the interests of attorneys, judges, law professors and students of Latino descent who share a common interest in fostering professional development in the legal community and addressing issues that are important to other Latino communities as a whole.
