New Jersey Commission on Professionalism in the Law
The New Jersey Commission on Professionalism in the Law is a unique cooperative venture of the NJSBA, the state and federal judiciary, and New Jersey’s three law schools. We hope to contribute to a strengthening of the traditional values, and sense of responsibility and public purpose, that have made the practice of law a distinguished profession.

Emergency Notification and Disaster Preparedness
Disasters happen. The NJSBA is where attorneys can find out how to receive notifications that will affect their practice and get resources to prepare their practice to be ready for natural or cybersecurity disasters.
Ethics and Professional Responsibility
Ethics and professional responsibility are key underpinnings of the legal profession. The NJSBA knows how important these ideals are and also knows that sometimes it is necessary to get some help with practice-related issues, such as trust accounting and other topics that aren’t necessarily taught in law school.
Lawyers Feeding New Jersey
The NJSBA and its members have raised over $100,000 since 2014 to support food insecure residents in New Jersey with nutritious meals.
