Join the IAEL
The IAEL has two types of membership, each with benefits appropriate for the relevant category of member. Full Membership is open to all practising entertainment lawyers, whether employed in the industry or in private practice. Associate Membership is open to thiose who have still to complete the relevant training for their professional legal qualification in their relevant jurisdiction.
The IAEL has always believed that one of the key benefits of membership has been the opportunity to join a specialist, international forum sharing knowledge and experience of legal and commercial issues of interest and concern to entertainment lawyers. Inclusion within the members database means your name will appear in a list of specialists which provides a first port of call for many when instructing entertainment lawyers in your territory.
Other benefits include free copies of the annual IAEL Book, as well as concessionary tariffs to industry events such as ADE and priority consideration for contributions to these activities.
Please note:
Membership year memberships are annual and all memberships run from 1 April each year (or the date during the year in which a new member joins) until 30 March of the following year. Each membership is automatically renewed for the following year, unless before commencement of a new membership year (1 April) notice of termination is received by the IAEL Treasurer.
