GT-Sponsored Equal Justice Works Fellows
Since 1999, Greenberg Traurig has invested more than $18 million to support U.S.-based fellows coordinated by Equal Justice Works, a nonprofit organization dedicated to providing opportunities for law students and lawyers to deliver effective legal representation to underserved communities and causes.
GT, occasionally with clients and nonprofit organizations, has sponsored 225 fellows who have provided more than 850,000 attorney hours working for 145 host organizations. The fellows spend two years working on public interest projects and cases under the supervision of their host organizations.
Below is the current list of EJW fellows sponsored, in whole or in part, by Greenberg Traurig. To learn more about their work, visit: https://www.equaljusticeworks.org/fellows/
