NYSBA Publications
Making sure our members stay informed in the ever-evolving field of law is crucial for both seasoned attorneys and those new to the profession. By regularly providing high-quality legal articles written by experienced lawyers, we are ensuring that your knowledge stays current, your strategies are sharp, and your practice is aligned with the latest legal standards.
Our new membership model now provides all members with all content from all publications and journals, regardless of whether you are a member of a specific section or not.
Section Publications
Attorneys and Solicitors outside of New York State and the United States do not have to be licensed in New York State to become a member of the New York State Bar Association. We also accept law student memberships from those attending law school outside of New York State.
The membership term is anniversary-based and reflects the date of joining. When selecting a membership payment option (annual or monthly), the membership is a year-long membership term and you are obligated to fulfill your payment(s) for the duration of the entire membership term.
In the event a member elects to cancel or otherwise terminate their membership, they agree to pay the remaining balance each month where applicable, satisfying their annual membership term in full at time of cancellation. The member will retain access to NYSBA member benefits for the entire membership term. We are not obligated to issue refunds for cancelled memberships. Full refunds or partial refunds for cancelled memberships will be considered and issued at the discretion of NYSBA and are not guaranteed. To request a full or partial refund, please contact [email protected] and provide a brief explanation of the purpose of the cancellation and request for the full or partial refund.
We follow an auto-renewal protocol to ensure as little disruption during a membership term and its renewal, however, all members may cancel their membership at any time and can manage their autorenew settings prior to the next renewal period.
Any New York attorney who has a genuine financial hardship may apply for tuition assistance for a CLE program by completing a Tuition Assistance Request Form and returning it to the CLE Department no later than five working days prior to the program date, explaining the basis of his/her hardship. If granted, the attorney will receive tuition assistance, depending on the individual’s circumstances.
We provide special incentives for law firms that wish to sign up all of their attorneys, provide access to all of the same resources a single member would receive, and receive a single invoice for maximum convenience. Please contact [email protected] for more information.
International members adhere to the same pricing tiers as attorneys in the domestic U.S. We encourage any member outside of the U.S. to read more about our dues waiver program should they qualify for a discount based on financial hardship.
In-person CLE programs, that likely require a separate budget, due to on-site needs and expenses, will likely require a separate registration fee. Select programs such as International Estate Planning Insitute, and our ongoing Bridging the Gap virtual program, would require a separate registration fee. All Section off-site meetings, such as the seasonal destination meetings, would require a separate registration fee due to expenses involved.
