2027 NCPLA Membership Dues Are Here + Important Reminders

Hi NCPLA Members,

2027 NCPLA membership dues invoices went out today! As you begin the renewal process, we wanted to share a few important reminders, including information about the 2027 printed directory, our early renewal drawing, sponsorship opportunities, and our upcoming Annual Meeting.

2027 Membership Dues & Printed Directory

As a reminder, NCPLA membership dues run November through October. Your individual renewal invoice was sent by email today and is also available in your NCPLA member account.

Payment due: November 30, 2026
Printed directory deadline: January 31, 2027
Invoices paid by January 31, 2027, will be included in the 2027 printed directory.
If you prefer to pay in the new year, that is perfectly fine.

Please do not complete a new membership application. Your renewal invoice is specific to your membership. You can pay online through your member account or print the invoice and mail a check. Please include your invoice number with check payments.

Don't Forget to Update Your Profile

2027 is a print year for the NCPLA directory! Please take a few minutes to review and update your member profile by January 31, 2027, including:

Contact information
Firm/company
Clients
Specialties
Title
Photo

After January 31, updates may no longer be possible as we prepare the directory for printing.

If you don't see your invoice in your email, please check your NCPLA member account. Mail-merge emails may occasionally be blocked by work email filters.

New This Year: Renew Early & Be Entered to Win!

Renew your 2027 NCPLA membership by October 14 and you'll be entered into a drawing for a $100 gift card to Sullivan's Steakhouse!

The raffle drawing will take place during dinner at the NCPLA Annual Meeting on October 15, with the winner announced that evening.

Paying Membership Dues for Your Organization?

If your firm or organization would like to pay membership dues for multiple NCPLA members together, we can make that easy with one invoice. Just reach out to Chantel, and we can coordinate the details.

Get Your Company in Front of NCPLA Members in 2027

2027 NCPLA sponsorships open November 1!

Sponsorships help support the educational programs, networking opportunities, and events NCPLA offers throughout the year, while providing valuable visibility for your company.

As a 2027 sponsor, your company can be recognized throughout the year and featured in the NCPLA printed directory, which is distributed to our members and staff at the General Assembly. It’s a great opportunity to showcase your organization, build connections, and maintain visibility among the NCPLA community.
