The mission of Equal Justice Works is to create a just society by mobilizing the next generation of lawyers committed to equal justice.

We provide leadership to ensure a sustainable pipeline of talented and trained lawyers involved in public service. Equal Justice Works provides a continuum of programs that begin with incoming law school students and extend into later careers in the profession. We provide the nations leading public interest law fellowship program and offer more postgraduate, full-time legal positions in public service than any other organization.

For more than 20 years, Equal Justice Works has collaborated with the nations leading law schools, law firms, corporate legal departments and nonprofit organizations to provide the training and skills that enable attorneys to provide effective representation to vulnerable populations.
