The Greater Colorado Fellowship Program

The Greater Colorado Fellowship Program will provide a lawyer or recent/soon-to-be law school graduate with an opportunity to develop a successful criminal defense practice in rural Colorado. This Fellowship is the ultimate public-private partnership. The Fellow will begin working as an OADC employee (for up to two years) with the security of a salary and benefits as they learn to become an excellent criminal defense attorney and entrepreneur. At the end of the fellowship, the Fellow will have the legal and business skills necessary to start a private practice in a Greater Colorado community, and they will transition from an OADC employee to a self-employed private practitioner.

OADC is not currently accepting applications; however, click this link for the Greater Colorado Fellowship position from our last hiring cycle.
