Geoffrey Wright Fellowship

 

The Geoffrey Wright Fellowship (previously known as the Earl Warren Fellowship) is a unique and wonderful opportunity for early-career lawyers interested in appellate litigation. Fellows spend two years in the California Department of Justice's Office of the Solicitor General, where they get to work on some of the State's (and Nation's) most complex and high-profile appeals. Fellows (who have gone on to do great things afterwards) always report that they found the Fellowship a fun and valuable experience. Applications are due October 23 for the next opportunity.

To begin the application process, fill out a State application (STD 678) and the Wright Fellowship Application. You will also need to provide a resume, a writing sample, a personal statement, two letters of recommendation, and law school transcripts.
