About NJLegals.com

Bringing Public Notices Into the Digital Age 

NJLegals.com was created to meet a new moment in New Jersey’s public notice law. 

As the legal landscape evolved in 2025, public entities and private organizations were given new responsibilities—and new opportunities—to publish legal notices online. NJLegals.com exists to provide a compliant, transparent, and professionally managed platform dedicated exclusively to the publication, archiving, and accessibility of legal advertisements. 

Our mission is simple: 

To ensure public notices remain easy to find, permanently accessible, and professionally managed—while preserving the transparency that strengthens local government and public trust.  

For decades, newspapers served as the primary vehicle for legal advertising. With changes to state law, publishers of public notices now need: 

  • trusted, online platform 
  • Reliable publication scheduling and proofing 
  • Searchable archives 
  • Clear documentation 
  • A partner that understands both journalism and government procedure 

NJLegals.com was built specifically to meet those needs.

  • Government accountability 
  • Public transparency 
  • Accurate, responsible journalism
