How can I become a member?
Membership of ILLA is open to anyone interested in “Language and Law”.
ILLA operates on a biennial membership system organised in cohorts that begin in odd-numbered years (e.g., 2027–2028, 2029–2030, 2031-2032). The standard membership fee is €60 and covers the full two-year cycle.
Applicants who join during an even-numbered year (e.g. 2026, 2028, 2030) may benefit from a reduced membership fee of €30, which covers only the remaining year of the ongoing cycle. At the end of that year, members can renew their membership by joining the next biennial cohort at the standard rate of €60.
