Patrick Malone & Associates is offering two scholarships of $5,000 each to law students committed to a career representing individuals.  We call this our “Representing Real People” scholarship.

  • Personal injury law representing injured individuals and families
  • Elder law
  • Immigration law representing individuals
  • Disability rights
  • Estates and trusts, and any probate matters representing individuals
  • Public interest law focused on individual rights

One of our two scholarships is designated for students attending law school in or near the District of Columbia, our law firm’s home base. The other can be used at any law school in the United States.

Eligibility:

  • Recipient must be accepted at an accredited U.S. law school and plan to attend in the fall of the year of application.
