Graduate Fellowship Program

Profile

Graduate Fellowship Program

The Fellowship Program places new associates from law firms at public interest law agencies in Illinois, where they are typically paid by their hiring firm to work for 300 hours between graduation and joining the firm. The Fellow will work on a wide and diverse range of issues depending on the agency where they serve. Will also work on transactional matters such as policy development and analysis, advocacy, impact litigation and more. The Fellow will be admitted to practice before the IRS under special-practice orders and will play a critical role in providing Clinic services to clients. The Fellow will assist Tax Clinic clients with issues related to collection, audits, innocent spouse claims, and employee versus independent contractor disputes, among others. Fellows do not necessarily need previous tax controversy experience to apply. Each Fellow will have one-on-one case review with the Staff Attorney. Upon beginning their Fellowship, the Clinic will organize regular weekly meetings to review cases and provide feedback to the Fellow.
