Philadelphia, PA – Public Interest Law Fellowship – Independence Foundation AkronLawJobs No.8021 Overview: Independence Foundation is committed to supporting free legal services for residents of the Philadelphia region. The Independence Foundation Public Interest Law Fellowship Program is a key element of this commitment.

The Alumni Career Connection – Page 16

Duties: Through the Fellowship Program, the Foundation funds the compensation and employment benefits for accomplished young lawyers who have decided to direct their considerable talents to public interest service. The Foundation requires that the focus of all Fellowship work be on direct representation of disadvantaged clients. The Foundation also assists the Fellows in repayment of their often substantial educational loans. Independence Foundation Public Interest Law Fellowships provide support for law school graduates, outgoing judicial law clerks and attorneys who are currently employed and who want to work in the public interest for a legal services organization that qualifies for 501(c)(3) organization and provides legal services to individuals who are disadvantaged, including the elderly, the disabled, the homeless or those deprived of their civil or human rights. Qualifications and Time Limit: JD and a member of the Pennsylvania State bar in good standing. The application must be made within five years of law school graduation. The duration of the Fellowship is one year. Fellowships may be renewed for one additional year if requested by the Fellow and approved by the Foundation Board of Directors and the sponsoring organization. All Fellows will be required to submit quarterly written reports of their Fellowship activities. Fellows who wish to renew their Fellowships for the second year must apply for renewal and submit an accounting of their first year and a recommendation from their sponsoring organization. Salary and Benefits: Effective in the fall of 2017, each Fellowship will provide the Fellow an annual salary in the amount of $52,000, plus the cost of health care benefits, disability insurance, and employer's withholding taxes as compensation for full-time employment. These amounts will be paid on a quarterly basis directly to the sponsoring organization. The Foundation will not pay the cost of pension benefits or any fringe benefits, such as employment-related travel expenses. In addition, each Fellowship will provide for those Fellows who owe student loans an amount equal to the amount due and payable on such loans during the term of the Fellowship up to a maximum amount of $10,000 in each Fellowship year. This amount will be paid on a quarterly basis directly to the employing organization. The Fellow shall be an employee of the organization and not the Foundation. To the extent that amounts paid under the Fellowship Program are deemed taxable, the Fellow shall be responsible for such tax obligations. Grants will be made to sponsoring organizations only. Therefore, before the final application is due, a legal services organization that will sponsor the applicant must be identified. The potential sponsoring organization must be a legal services organization serving the disadvantaged whose work has been funded previously by Independence Foundation. It must have its principal office in Philadelphia, Delaware, Montgomery, Bucks, or Chester County, Pennsylvania. A Fellowship applicant must propose a public interest law project that he or she will implement if granted a Fellowship. A public interest law project typically consists of developing a new substantive area of legal practice or type of legal service which is consistent with the sponsoring organization's overall mission but in which the organization has generally not previously engaged. However, in rare instances, Fellowships are granted to support public interest law projects that do not involve developing a new area of practice, but rather consist of the development of a new approach that more effectively, innovatively, and comprehensively delivers a type of legal service the organization has previously attempted to provide. Fellowships will not be granted to fund either the prosecution or defense of criminal defendants. Moreover, although a Fellow may engage in some policy-based activities, a major component of a Fellow's anticipated work must consist of direct legal representation of disadvantaged clients. Direct representation may include representation in litigation before either judicial or administrative forums or representation of clients in transactional matters. Each organization may sponsor only one applicant for a Fellowship in any year. However, an organization that currently employs an Independence Foundation Fellow may sponsor an applicant for a new Fellowship. No current employee of an organization may apply for a Fellowship at that organization. IT IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE APPLICANT to secure a position with a potential sponsoring organization before submitting an application for a Fellowship. The SPONSORING ORGANIZATION must prepare a COMMITMENT LETTER for submission to the Foundation with the Application. The COMMITMENT LETTER must contain a brief description of the organization, including its structure, history, and public interest goals and activities; a representation that the organization is a qualified 501(c)(3) organization; a description of the public interest law project to which the applicant will be assigned if a Fellowship is granted; and, a commitment to employ the applicant in that position on a full-time basis, under the terms and conditions applicable to all similarly situated employees of the organization (except compensation), for a period of one year, subject to renewal for a further year upon the approval of both the Foundation and the sponsoring organization. The SPONSORING ORGANIZATION must also complete the attached Benefits Worksheet, on which the organization must provide the requested information concerning the projected cost of benefits for the potential fellow, and provide a 501(c)(3) Tax-Exempt Status Qualifying Letter.
