The Chicago Lawyers' Committee is staffed by seven full time attorneys and four part time attorneys, as well as two paralegals, three outreach coordinators, and minimal administrative and support staff. Our employees work tirelessly to champion civil rights and community development through fair housing, employment opportunity, hate crime response, transactional law, and assisting pro se litigants in reaching settlements. Biographies of each staff member are available here.
However, the real strength of the Chicago Lawyers' Community is in its leveraged volunteer time. To that effect, it puts significant effort into training the private Bar, including lawyers, recent JDs, law students, and undergraduates that have an eye to civil rights law, to better preserve, protect and champion civil rights. The Chicago Lawyers' Committee is currently seeking Civil Rights Interns and Civil Rights Fellows for our Fall cycle.
Please send a cover letter, resume, and one-paragraph professional biography to opportunities@clccrul.org if you are interested in either of these positions.
