STEPHANIE LOVELL HONORS FELLOWSHIP PROGRAM 2027

MULTIPLE DIVISIONS

MULTIPLE BUREAUS

The Stephanie Lovell Honors Program, named in honor of former First Assistant Stephanie Lovell to recognize her many contributions to the Attorney General’s Office, offers entry-level attorneys the unique and exciting opportunity to engage in the practice of law and policy in the largest public sector legal office in the Commonwealth.

Program Description :

The Fellowship Program is a two-year term that begins in September 2027 and ends in September 2029. As an initiative of the office’s Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Committee, the Stephanie Lovell Honors Program is especially intended to expand opportunities within the Attorney General’s Office for new lawyers and to attract a pool of candidates from a broad spectrum of backgrounds who reflect the diversity of the people of the Commonwealth and the communities we serve.

Our work at the Attorney General's Office encompasses a variety of different practice areas including civil rights, health care, consumer protection, environmental protection, criminal prosecution, fair labor, administrative law, data privacy, constitutional defense of the Commonwealth’s nation-leading laws, and so much more. In addition to our Boston offices, we have regional offices that serve the Western, Central, and Southeastern regions of Massachusetts. Given this broad array of essential public services, selected fellows will have the opportunity to explore and gain experience in a variety of practice areas over the course of the two-year fellowship.

Fellows receive training and guidance from experienced attorneys to enhance proficiency and

develop skills. Through the Fellowship Program, new attorneys will launch their legal careers by

enriching their legal experience, broadening their exposure to the public sector, and assuming substantial individual responsibility for their work.

Fellows generally complete three rotations through different areas of the office.

Fellows will have the opportunity during their final rotation to seek continued employment with the Attorney General's Office.

All individuals invited to participate in the Stephanie Lovell Honors Program must commit to a two-year term and must take the Massachusetts bar exam no later than July 2027. Additionally, individuals must be admitted to the bar before the start of their second-year rotation.

Program Eligibility :

Third-year day or fourth-year evening law students scheduled to graduate in 2027; and

Current full-time judicial law clerks who received their J.D. prior to 2027 and either:

Began their clerkship(s) upon graduation from law school; or

Accepted and deferred for up to one year and did not practice as an attorney before beginning their clerkship(s).

Candidate Criteria :

Fellowship Program candidates will be selected on the basis of several factors, including but not

limited to:

Academic and intellectual ability.

Knowledge, experience, and ability in legal areas such as research, advocacy, trial preparation, discovery, investigation, negotiation, etc.

Legal, professional, or personal experience related to the mission of the Attorney General’s Office.

Strength of writing and editing skills and substantive experience with legal writing and editing through law school activities (e.g., law journal or equivalent) or internships.

Commitment to the diverse communities the office serves.

Flexibility and interest in a variety of legal subject areas.

The successful candidate will be able to demonstrate a commitment to public interest law, a connection to the people and communities we serve and an interest in supporting a respectful and inclusive work environment.
