Richmond, Virginia

Welcome to the website for RLSA…the association for legal professionals.

We are the Richmond area chapter affiliated with the statewide and national associations for legal professions (VALS and NALS, respectively). The Association is nonunion, nonpartisan, nonsectarian and nonprofit. The Richmond chapter was established in 1958.

RLSA’s purposes are to:

(1) Further the education of those engaged in legal work and to cooperate with attorneys, judges and bar associations in stimulating a high order of professional standards and ethics among persons engaged as legal professionals in private law offices, trust companies, various courts and municipal and governmental agencies.

(2) Promote the objectives of NALS.

RLSA meets the fourth Monday of each month to provide legal education for our members and guests at our dinner business meetings. In addition, NALS/VALS/RLSA members have a great networking system all across the U.S.

Please feel free to browse through the various pages of our website, and if you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact one of the members of our Board of Directors. We hope to see you soon at a Chapter meeting!
