About ALANYC

Team Spirit

Coming together is a beginning. Keeping together is progress. Working together is success.” – Henry Ford

There is so much more that can be learned and accomplished by working with a team of your peers rather than working on your own. There is also an opportunity to strengthen your skills as a leader by mentoring others on a team.

The New York City Chapter of the Association of Legal Administrators (the “ALANYC”), is a network of approximately 500 leaders from leading New York, national, and global law firms and corporate legal departments.

The ALANYC was founded in 1977 and is the largest chapter of the Associations of Legal Administrators. We represent a diverse group of management professionals with a shared goal of continued professional development “to enhance the knowledge and professionalism of our members and increase the visibility and credibility of the profession of legal administration.”

The leadership of our organization is very talented and knowledgeable. See for yourself by visiting the Board of Directors, Committee Chair and Past Presidents sections of our website.

Providing “high-quality educational programs” and developing the leadership skills of our members is our mission and vision. Our educational programs focus on developing our members’ skills in the functional areas of finance, human resources, information technology and office operations management and advancing leadership capabilities in the areas of organizational development, communication and self-management skills. Our luncheon programs highlight dynamic, motivational and educational speakers; we feature a full-day Educational Symposium and Exposition; and provide the accredited resources and education track for certification as a Certified Legal Manager (CLM)SM.

I invite you to view our Calendar of Events for an up-to-date listing of our programs and communications, which include educational seminars, luncheons, our premier Managing Attorneys Luncheon, section meetings, our award-winning newsletter, New York, New York. You will see that throughout the year we provide our members with many educational, networking and community service opportunities.

Our Sponsor Services Listing is a valued source for identifying the services and products our business partners provide to our firms and the legal community. The support and commitment of our business partners, both to our chapter and our firms, is essential to our operations. Their expertise allows our firms to focus on exceeding our client’s expectations.

Once you join the ALANYC, you will have access to our “Members Only” section, which includes resources to support you in the successful management of your firm or corporate legal departments.
