LEAD-WA is open to Washington State law firms and companies.  It is an easy way to hire a diverse first-year law student as a summer fellow.  As a LEAD-er, the employer gets the benefit of a streamlined application and interview process. For employers who have never hosted law students, this program provides mentorship for new supervisors and offers guidance on how to maximize the experience for the employer and the student.  By joining the LEAD-WA community, employers commit to advancing diversity within their own ranks and in Washington's larger legal community.
