Please see a fantastic opportunity below for a law student or recent
graduate with a disability.  I worked at BGL and it was one of the best
places I've ever worked.  I encourage everyone interested in applying and
that you share widely with your network.

THE 2024 BROWN, GOLDSTEIN & LEVY 

DISABILITY RIGHTS FELLOWSHIP 

In September 2009, Brown, Goldstein & Levy, LLP welcomed 

its first Disability Rights Fellow. We are now accepting 

applications for our tenth Disability Rights Fellow 

to begin in September 2024. The Fellowship offers a recent law 

school graduate or judicial clerk with a disability the opportunity 

to participate for a year in all phases of disability rights and 

other litigation at our firm in Baltimore, Maryland. Brown, 

Goldstein & Levy is a 20-lawyer law firm devoted principally to 

litigation. The firm has developed a national reputation for its 

high-profile, high-impact disability rights cases. Information 

about Brown, Goldstein & Levy, including our past and present 

work and fellows, is available at 

browngold.com 

Terms of the Fellowship 

The term of the Fellowship is one year (with the possibility of 

a second year). Salary and benefits will be commensurate 

with the salaries paid and benefits provided to non-Fellowship 

attorneys of equivalent experience and qualifications. The 

Fellow should be a member of a state bar or be planning to 

obtain admittance to a state bar with the ability to apply for 

Maryland admission.

The National Federation of the Blind of Maryland knows that blindness is not
the characteristic that defines you or your future. Every day we raise the
expectations of blind people, because low expectations create obstacles
between blind people and our dreams. You can live the life you want;
blindness is not what holds you back
