    Georgetown’s Environmental Law & Justice Clinic (“ELJC” or the “Clinic”) is hiring one lawyer to serve as a Clinical Teaching Fellow and Supervising Attorney for a two-year term beginning in summer 2025 (start date range is July 1st-August 1st).

    Clinic Description

    The ELJC conducts public interest legal work on behalf of underserved clients in the areas of environmental protection and justice, pollution control, climate change, and natural resources. The Clinic is an immersive and multi-modal experience, exposing students to the broad range of work in which environmental attorneys engage. We teach students key lawyering and advocacy skills through work on live cases that are excellent learning vehicles. Our case load involves a mix of regulatory work, litigation-related matters, and other advisory projects. The ELJC advocates on behalf of groups ranging in size from small community groups and neighborhoods to Indigenous Communities, to environmental or public justice organizations.

    The students work in the Clinic nearly full time and receive 10 academic credits for their project work and for their participation in the Environmental Law & Justice Clinic Seminar four hours a week. The students work on projects under the supervision of a Clinical Teaching Fellow/Supervising Attorney and faculty member. Our Clinic seminars address various substantive fields of law such as administrative practice and environmental justice, lawyering skills (including client-facing, internal collaboration, and external advocacy-related skills), topics on professional responsibility, and also consist of team project presentations regarding issues that have arisen in a representation and moots of client meetings.

    The Clinical Teaching Fellowship

    Georgetown Law is widely regarded as offering the strongest in-house clinical legal program in the nation. This includes our clinical pedagogy training for fellows, as well as the strength of the fellows themselves—and their significant contributions to student learning and clinical advocacy.

    The ELJC fellow will:

    • Supervise students’ day-to-day clinical projects, working closely with the students on improving their lawyering skills, especially legal research, writing, and analysis. Much of the supervising attorney's time is spent: guiding students in conducting legal and factual research; reviewing student drafts; offering suggestions for improvement as well as highlighting what students have done well and should replicate; and preparing the students for oral presentations. Fellows are expected to give and receive formal and informal feedback in timely, constructive, respectful ways;
    • Take responsibility for their own case load, including various opportunities to engage in advocacy;
    • Share responsibility for designing and teaching seminar sessions;
    • Take an active role in project/case development and assist with administrative and case handling responsibilities of the Clinic;
    • Participate in a clinical pedagogy seminar and other activities designed to support an interest in clinical teaching and legal education.

    This Fellowship offers an opportunity to work on critically important, often cutting-edge matters. Fellows assume substantial responsibility for projects and have an opportunity to work on a variety of cases, at different stages of development. Fellows work closely with a broad range of clients, meeting others who are involved in public interest law, community lawyering, and seeing how their organizations function.

    For those with an interest in becoming a doctrinal/podium or clinical law professor, Fellows get first-hand experience in teaching, clinical supervision, and deep knowledge of pedagogical philosophy and course design. Fellows can also receive substantial guidance on scholarly projects—including development, writing, and presentation of scholarship—and on entering the teaching market.

    Fellows are supervised by Clinic Director, Sara Colangelo, an Associate Professor of Law and alumna of the Clinic.

    Qualifications

     at least three years post-J.D. work experience in domestic environmental law or related fields; experience with litigation valuable but not necessary

     exceptional legal writing and communications skills, and experience and interest in helping others improve their legal writing, research, and analytical skills

     commitment to creating a supportive, hospitable learning environment and commitment to exhibiting emotional intelligence

     admission (or willing to be admitted as soon as possible) to the D.C. Bar

    Pay and Benefits

    The annual stipend for the position will be $70,000 the first year and $75,000 the second year plus an opportunity to participate in group health insurance and other benefits, including unlimited free access to a state-of-art, on-site fitness center. Georgetown University Law Center awards an LL.M in Advocacy to each fellow upon completion of their two-year term.

    How to Apply

    Please submit a single PDF file with the following documents in this order: cover letter, resume/CV, law school transcript, and three references with contact information (we will only contact references following second-round interviews) to Clinic Administrator, Niko Perazich, at nwp2@georgetown.edu. Candidates selected for an interview will be asked to share a writing sample that is no longer than 10 pages and not significantly edited by someone else.

    Applications will be accepted and reviewed on a rolling basis until May 27th, 2025.

    The Yale Law School Center for Private Law seeks applications for a Clinical Fellow in Private Law. The Clinical Fellow would also serve as the Director of the Private Law Clinic at Yale Law School for the duration of the fellowship. The fellowship will begin by August 2025 at the latest and extend over two academic years, with the possibility of renewing the post for a third. Pay and benefits will track the Law School's practices. Applications received by April 25 will be given priority.

    The Fellow will work alongside the Center's director, Daniel Markovits, to teach the Private Law Clinic during the academic semester. Duties will include designing and co-teaching the weekly two hour seminar, supervising students on a regular basis, helping select the matters the clinic will take up, and coordinating with outside attorneys on both the substance of the matters and the feedback they provide our students.

    Throughout its work, the Clinic aims to deploy private law doctrines in the public interest and/or to apply useful ideas from legal theory to push for improvements to existing doctrine. By way of example, students may find themselves seeking redress for the victims of cryptocurrency scams, arguing for heightened tort duties owed to people with disabilities, or researching contract theories that can be used to combat exploitative or deceptive medical bills. In our seminar, we also tackle specific issues within private law doctrine and theory (e.g., the rights of third-party contract beneficiaries or the relationship between statutory and common-law tort liability). The details of the clinic’s docket and the topics covered in seminar remain somewhat open, however, and will depend on the Fellow's interests and expertise, as well as on student input.

    While an ambition to become a law professor is not required, the fellowship is designed to support someone who would like to move from practice into a university appointment, as either a clinical or an academic professor. In addition to co-teaching the Clinic alongside the Clinical Fellow, the Center's director will engage with the Fellow's research and academic work in the service of helping the Fellow to develop as a scholar and teacher.

    Applicants should submit a letter of interest and a CV by email to Daniel.Markovits@Yale.edu and to Patricia.Milardo@Yale.edu with the subject line “Clinical Fellowship Application.”
