New Jersey State Bar Association President William H. Mergner Jr. visited incoming first-year law students at Seton Hall University School of Law and Rutgers Law School-Camden to offer words of encouragement and administer the Lawyer’s Pledge, an oath that outlines the ideals of the profession. “Today, the New Jersey State Bar Association officially welcomes you as a new member. You are now part of a network of more than 16,000 attorneys who belong to the NJSBA, who sat where you sit now and know the challenges you will experience,” Mergner said. “You may have first-day jitters, feel excited or anxious, but also know this: you are not alone. The NJSBA is here for support and as a valuable resource as you begin your legal education and your entry into this great and noble profession.” On behalf of the NJSBA, congratulations to the law school classes of 2027. #NJStateBar

Heading out of town for Labor Day? Get your Exit Row Ethics and complete your ethics requirement for the year before the Holiday weekend! Stuart Teicher, the self-proclaimed "Frequent Flyer of Legal Ethics," has racked up more miles than a passenger on a Space X rocket. He's witnessed a veritable circus of passenger behaviors that uncannily mirror the ethical tightrope walk of the legal profession. From the "Armrest Anarchist" who can't respect boundaries (much like some lawyers with client funds) to the "Overhead Bin Hoarder" who thinks the rules don't apply to them (hello, conflict of interest!), Teicher has seen it all. As a former attorney ethics investigator, Teicher brings a unique perspective to this entertaining and educational seminar.
