How to Join a Committee

In This Section

Joining an AIPLA committee is easy! Any AIPLA member is eligible to join a committee at any point during their membership. There is no extra charge related to committee membership.

There are two levels of committee membership, voting and non-voting.

AIPLA members can join or leave a committee as a non-voting member at any time and there is no requirement to participate. Being a non-voting member simply adds you to the groups email distribution list so that you are aware of news, opportunities and resources that the committee provides.

AIPLA members can join a committee as a voting member each fall during Committee Open Season which runs between the AIPLA Annual Meeting and January 31. Being a voting member of the committee allows you to have a voice on committee matters and comes with requirements to attend scheduled meetings and vote on committee business.

There is no limit to the number of committees you can join as a non-voting member. You can become a voting member of up to to 2 "Practice and Association" committees and up to 3 "Substantive Law" committees. More information can be found on the committee signup page in your member profile.
