"E. Barrett Prettyman Fellowship"

The Criminal Defense & Prisoner Advocacy Clinic, Criminal Justice Clinic, and Juvenile Justice Clinic offer a postgraduate two-year fellowship. Three fellows are selected annually through the E. Barrett Prettyman Fellowship Program at Georgetown Law. The goal of the fellowship is to provide high quality representation to adults and adolescents accused of crimes and provide recent law school graduates with rigorous training in criminal trial advocacy and clinical teaching. Fellows spend two years in the program, after which they are awarded an LLM degree in Advocacy. During the first year, fellows try cases and develop their public defense skills under close faculty supervision in the criminal clinics. During the summer, they take classes in clinical teaching and supervision and begin to develop their skills as clinical teachers. The Fellowships provide a stipend (taxable) of $70,000 in the first year and $75,000 in the second year, with benefits, in addition to full tuition and fees.
