Notice – IOLTA Fund of the Bar of New Jersey – 2024 Annual Registration Requirement – Final Notice
The Regulations of the IOLTA Fund of the Bar of New Jersey approved by the New Jersey Supreme Court require that trust accounts subject to Rule 1:28A shall be registered annually with the IOLTA Fund. Those attorneys not in compliance for 2024 will be administratively ineligible to practice law in New Jersey. The last day to complete the 2024 IOLTA Online Registration Form is August 16, 2024.
If you are not now in private practice, and have not updated your information with IOLTA, you must respond so that we can adjust our records. There are no fees associated with IOLTA registration.
All attorney trust, escrow and master accounts must be included in the registration. In December 2023, the IOLTA Fund posted a Notice to the Bar and emailed instructions for IOLTA registration to the billing email addresses on file with the Lawyers’ Fund for Client Protection for New Jersey law firms and sole practitioners, requesting online registration covering all firm attorneys by March 31, 2024. A second reminder was emailed on April 16, 2024 to all non-compliant attorneys.
Final Notices were emailed on July 16, 2024 to the billing address on record with the Supreme Court for receiving official Court information. All IOLTA information is emailed. Please be sure to add [email protected] to your safe sender list of contacts.
Any attorney who is not sure if he or she is in compliance may contact the IOLTA Fund via email at [email protected]. Be patient. We will respond to ALL emails. Online registration instructions and other important information can be obtained at www.ioltanj.org. We can also be reached at 732-247-8222.
