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.

NEW AUGUST 2024: Inclusivity Attorney Fellow
We are excited to announce that the Office of Alternate Defense Counsel (OADC) is currently hiring an Inclusivity Attorney Fellow. The fellowship opportunity is the ultimate public-private partnership, whereby the fellow would receive a state employee position for up to two years while they develop their criminal defense skillset and their emerging future businesses and criminal defense practice.

These two-year funded fellowships provide the ideal opportunity to lay the groundwork for launching your business as an independent contractor upon completing the fellowship. With the innovative structure of this fellowship and the backing of the OADC team, you'll receive support in establishing your private practice, non-profit, or law firm.
