Why should you invest in LGA?
For 50 years, LGA has been the primary supporter of local government practitioners throughout the Commonwealth. For large and small localities, and firms with a single shingle or a global presence, LGA furnishes specialized legal education and publications, provides on-line forums for support and the exchange of ideas, and acts as a public policy resource for legislative commissions and committees, and as amici in significant local government litigation.
Sponsorship of LGA is more than a wise investment for your company – it’s an opportunity to support an organization with a strong commitment to serving the attorneys who serve Virginia’s local governments.
Annual Sponsorship
Your support as an annual sponsor allows LGA to remain a major proponent of professional growth and knowledge exchange among legal practitioners in local government law. Annual Sponsorship is confirmed by September 1 and invoices are sent to the designated contacts by September 15 with payment due by October 15. Annual sponsor support can be paid in two equal payments with half due by October 15 and the other half due by March 15.
NOTE: There are groups that source sponsor and exhibitor listings from associations and contact previous supporters soliciting sponsorships. LGA does not use a third-party to cull sponsorships. If it doesn’t come from staff or a member, then pass on the “ask.”
