Investing in membership in NACDL will pay off many times over when you make full use of all the member benefits. Members receive The Champion monthly, a legal journal full of cutting edge strategies and case winning tips, whose articles are written by and for criminal defense attorneys.

Online member-only benefits include one general and a number of specialized listservs, covering topics related to DUI, forensics, eyewitness and white collar crime. The listservs enable to ask any question and get cogent replies quickly. You can also stay up-to-date with breaking criminal defense related news, and have free access to a Briefs and Motions Bank. And you will be listed in our public “Find a Lawyer” directory. NACDL is frequently contacted for referrals, and this member benefit can bring you business.

Networking with other criminal defense attorneys is made easy through both through attendance at our outstanding seminars, held eight times a year, and through participation on NACDL’s standing committees. Our CLE seminars are consistently rated above a “4” in 1-5 point rankings, with lead speakers receiving rave reviews – members get substantial registration discounts. Members also have access to the Member Handbook, for use in local networking and in finding attorneys in other states to handle out-of-state matters.

NACDL has negotiated with numerous legal services providers so that you can get the lowest rates on products. Affinity agreements are in place with Thomson West, JurisClerks, VersusLaw, and a professional liability insurance provider, Complete Equity Markets.
Even more discount programs are available from companies such as Gateway Computers, Dell, Staples and Expedia. Use of these discounts can save you hundreds of dollars.
