New York Law School

The following New York Law School students have received fellowships from Equal Justice America. These fellowships are made possible by contributions from New York Law School alumni. With continued support from the alumni, we look forward to putting many more New York Law School students and graduates to work providing vitally needed legal assistance to the poor.

(Equal Justice America is an independent non-profit 501(c)(3) corporation unaffiliated with any law school.)

"Without help from Equal Justice America none of this would have been possible. Thanks to Equal Justice America I was allowed to have a phenomenal experience this summer helping represent vulnerable individuals [at the New York Legal Assistance Group]. This is a summer experience that will resonate with me throughout the remainder of my life. I was allowed to serve over 100 people this summer. I would like to thank all of the people that deal with Equal Justice America for their help in allowing me to have this experience this summer."
