By joining a New Jersey State Bar Association (NJSBA) section or division, you gain access to a robust knowledge-sharing network of seasoned legal professionals via regular virtual and in-person meetings, webinars, and emails. These peer-led groups help you network, learn best practices and keep you in the know of the latest legal trends in your practice area. Membership to a section/division is at an additional cost that is not included with your membership. To view section/division pricing or to join one, click here or call our Membership Department at 732-249-5000.

There is no cost to join a special committee.
