Paul M. da Costa, Appointed To Civil Trial Certification Committee

The Supreme Court of New Jersey has recently appointed Partner, Paul M. da Costa, to the Civil Trial Certification Committee. He will serve a three-year term, concluding on December 31, 2024. 

The New Jersey Supreme Court established the Board on Attorney Certification in 1980 to help consumers find an attorney with specialized competence in a particular area of law. The Board designates lawyers from New Jersey as "Certified Attorneys" if they demonstrate sufficient levels of experience, education, knowledge, and skill in one of five areas of law. More information is available regarding the selection criteria on the NJ Supreme Court Website.

As a member of the Civil Certification Committee, Paul will contribute to the evaluation of applicants seeking certification as a civil trial attorney. He will be involved with the creation and grading of exams administered by the Board as part of the certification process. These exams are determining factors in whether an attorney becomes certified.
