Staff Attorney Fellowships

CAL offers recent law school graduates and judicial clerks the opportunity to become staff attorney fellows.  This paid position aims to provide new attorneys with extensive exposure, not only to appellate practice, but to all aspects of post-conviction proceedings.  Hired for a two-year period, fellows have the opportunity to write briefs and argue in the Appellate Division, as well as to appear in trial court on re-sentencing matters, motions to vacate based on constitutional violations or newly discovered evidence, and community notification proceedings in sex offender cases.  CAL's close supervision process, varied practice, and supportive environment provide an ideal experience for a new attorney.    

The application period for September 2012 fellowship positions is now closed. We are not accepting any applications at this time.
