What are the benefits of being a PILI Fellow?
PILI Fellowships at direct legal services agencies provide Fellows with valuable hands-on client experience. Fellows at agencies involved with advocacy or impact litigation have the rare opportunity to work in fascinating areas that affect the public welfare. Fellowships can provide direct client contact or in-depth writing, invaluable experiences for the early years of practice. One of PILI’s major goals is to encourage a life-long involvement with pro bono work. After joining their firms, Fellows often continue to work on agency pro bono matters. They have had great experiences, and are bitten by the bug.
