Speakers Bureau

 

The New Jersey State Bar Foundation offers a free Speakers Bureau, where volunteer attorneys address school, community and senior citizens groups throughout the state on numerous areas of the law. Attorneys typically speak for approximately 60 minutes, including time for questions. Please allow at least 60 days for the arrangement of your request and be flexible on the date.

Virtual Option Now Available: In these unprecedented times, the Foundation understand the importance of staying connected. As a result, we have organized a team of attorneys who can speak on various topics, using online video conferencing platforms such as Zoom, Skype, etc. If you would. prefer to have one of our speakers come to your virtual event, rather than in person, please indicate that on the form below (where it says “Enter Speaking Location”).

Attention Attorneys: If you would like to volunteer for the NJSBF’s Speakers Bureau, we would love to have you. To fill out the Attorney Volunteer Form, click here. For questions, contact Tabitha Rodriguez at 732-937-7528 or [email protected].

“Ms. De Appolonio was an exemplary and informative speaker. Her relaxed and confident speaking style was not only inclusive and welcoming to our students, but also left most of them feeling most empowered  and enlightened as to what their rights and responsibilities are under the law. Thank you NJSBF!.”
