MWL Membership Dues

GENERAL INFORMATION: MWL is an association "by members and for members."  Membership dues provide the foundational support which makes MWL's work possible. Please refer to the MWL Membership Dues Table below for a complete outline of membership levels. All MWL membership dues are based on the fiscal year, July 1st to June 30th. All memberships renew on July 1st of each year. 

Standard membership levels are based on the year an individual was admitted to the bar.  MWL also offers additional membership levels to fit individual situations. 

COMMITTED TO ACCESSIBILITY: MWL is committed to offering dues levels that meet the needs of a variety of circumstances and income levels. In particular, the MWL Select Membership is available to ensure MWL membership is accessible to all those who would like to join. Individuals simply select a dues amount that fits best for them, typically between $20 and $100. The MWL Select Membership is available to all current and prospective members, and particularly aimed towards public, non-profit, solo and part-time attorneys. 

 *To Join as a Select Member: Please contact Hannah Zuercher (hzuercher@mwlawyers.org) to confirm your dues amount.  

MWL PREMIER MEMBERSHIP OPPORTUNITIES: MWL Premier Members demonstrate their strong commitment to MWL’s mission with an  increased dues amount.  This support not only enhances MWL's ability to offer high-quality programming and networking opportunities throughout the year, but it also helps MWL to offer lower-cost memberships and event scholarships to others in the legal community.  MWL Premier Members also enjoy a selection of exclusive benefits.  Complete details are HERE. Note: MWL Premier Membership payments may be made in automatic quarterly installments.  

Help Us Reach Our Goal!  During FY19-20, MWL set the goal for 10% of its membership to join or renew as a Premier Member. Your Premier Member support is not only a big step towards this goal, but it also provides a strong message of support to the rest of the legal community.

Please refer to the MWL Membership Dues Table below for a complete outline of membership levels.

*To Join as a Select Member: Please contact Hannah Zuercher (hzuercher@mwlawyers.org) to join at the "Select Membership" level, and confirm your dues amount.
