    Fried Frank Fellowship - Appl. Deadline

    For more information about this fellowship, please contact Nicole Simmons, Director of Public Service Programs in the CSO, at nsimmons@law.utexas.edu.

    Fried Frank has created unique programs that effectively bridge the worlds of private law firm litigation and public service law by joining with two of the country's leading civil rights advocacy organizations, the NAACP Legal Defense and Educational Fund, Inc. (LDF) and the Mexican-American Legal Defense and Educational Fund (MALDEF).

    The LDF and MALDEF fellowships each give an entry-level lawyer the opportunity to spend two years as a Fried Frank litigator and then two years as a staff attorney with LDF or MALDEF. At the end of their four-year commitment, successful Fellows are encouraged to interview to return to Fried Frank and, in some cases, they may continue on the staff of their civil rights organization. We are proud that a number of our former Fellows hold high-level positions on the staffs of both LDF and MALDEF.

    The ideal candidate for a Fried Frank Fellowship is a third-year law student or recent graduate currently in a judicial clerkship. Candidates for the MALDEF and LDF fellowships should have a genuine interest in both corporate and civil rights litigation. For the MALDEF Fellowship, Spanish language skills are highly desirable.

    The application deadline is November 1, 2012 by 4:00 p.m. (Central).on the application and selection process can be found on the Fried Frank Fellowship page.

    How to Apply for Judicial Clerkships

    This is the first of two mandatory meetings for 2Ls and 3Ls who will be applying for 2014-term clerkships. Note that the application process may begin sooner (in the spring) rather than summer/early fall. UT Law Judicial Clerkship Advisors will discuss how to determine what courts you are competitive for, how to select judges, and how and when to apply for clerkships. For more information, visit the CSO's Judicial Clerkship website.

    3Ls who applied for 2013-clerkships do not need to attend this meeting. However, should you choose to apply for the 2014 term, you must attend the second mandatory meeting (TBD) as federal judges are changing the application process and you will need to learn about it.

    Lunch will be served. Please RSVP by Monday, November 12, on UT Law Symplicity by selecting the 'Events' tab.
