The Property Litigation Association welcomes new members who are qualified to join. Please refer to our Articles and Memorandum for details as well to the document Membership Applications Guidelines. In summary, solicitors (but not trainees), legal executives and employed barristers may become members if they are substantially engaged in property litigation or property mediation. This is generally taken to exclude construction and planning.
The PLA year runs from 1st September to 31st August. New members may join the Association at any time but the full subscription is payable (unless the application is made in July or August). The subscription for 2018-19 is £50 pa. This will rise to £65 from 1 September 2019.
HONORARY MEMBERS
The PLA created the new position in 2015 to honour those who have made an outstanding contribution to the Association and who are leaders in property litigation. The PLA’s intention is to award honorary membership sparingly and only to outstanding candidates, limiting these to one or two appointments per year.
