Many states have formal or informal associations of law enforcement legal advisors, and larger national law enforcement associations often have "legal advisor" groups. The United States Association of Police Legal Advisors is a membership organization that provides a single membership space for law enforcement legal advisors across the country. Whether you are a city attorney working for a municipal police department, general counsel to a sheriff, or a private lawyer who advises a law enforcement agency, USAPLA is for you!
Benefits of membership include access to "members only" spaces which include:
- A Member Forum for members to share ideas, ask questions, and communicate.
- A News page for updates on cases and events impacting law enforcement.
- A place to post and view job listings.
- A membership directory.
- Discounts to events such as the USAPLA Police Legal Advisor Training Conference.
