As of today, new members will receive thousands of hours of Continuing Legal Education courses, membership to exclusive sections, access to hundreds of automated forms and unlimited articles on the latest legal developments – all for the price of membership.
With this transformation, belonging to the New York State Bar Association will mean even more than ever. Members, of course, still get all the traditional benefits of membership and the ability to add the name of the prestigious association to their resumes.
Let’s dive deeper into how belonging will advance your practice.

First, there are two complimentary section memberships. There’s a home for every practitioner – from real estate to antitrust to tax law to family law — in our 28 sections. Plus, there are sections based on shared interests such as Women in Law, LGBTQ+ law and Young Lawyers. For thousands of members, sections help them find business, get advice and build professional and personal relationships. |

|
Need to complete your Continuing Legal Education requirements? Check out our library of more than 1,700 CLE programs. It’s an invaluable resource for all attorneys – learning from the top experts and keeping track of the latest legal developments – all without having to shell out extra money. |
 |
|
And our library keeps growing. Nearly every day, we host virtual CLE and informational programs, delivered live from renowned experts in every area of the legal profession. It’s all available at the click of a button – and without having to pull out your credit card or leave your home. |
 |
|
Another advantage of New York State Bar Association membership? Automated online forms to save you time otherwise spent drafting, writing and typing. You do not have to download any software; just input the information to generate the forms in whatever format you need. It’s paperwork that pretty much does itself. |
 |
|
Plus, members gain our entire library of e-books, which cover practical skills in estate planning, criminal law, arbitration and mediation and many more areas of law. |
 |
|
Members also receive complimentary subscriptions to our publications – including the New York State Bar Association Journal, the State Bar News, NYS Law Digest and Case Prep Plus, as well as the articles and content produced by our 28 sections. That means you get a treasure trove of reference materials, as well as news and analysis to keep you informed. |
 |
|
Our members often write for our publications – it’s a resume boost and a way to share knowledge and expertise with a wider audience. Got a topic you’re passionate about? Analysis of a hot-button issue? We would love you to submit your work for potential publication. |
 |
|
And that’s just some of the benefits. Members also receive NYSBA’s Ethics Opinions, weekly emails and access to networking events – including section meetings in locales ranging from Montreal to Havana. The Annual Meeting is the event of the year, when thousands of lawyers converge on New York City for a week of cutting-edge programming and news about the latest developments in all practice areas. |
