Georgetown Law Federal Legislation Clinic

Just steps from the U.S. Capitol, the Federal Legislation Clinic has been training law students for decades to be effective legislative lawyers operating at the intersection of law and politics. Students who have taken the Clinic have gone on to careers in Congress, the White House, federal agencies, advocacy groups, law and lobbying firms, and a host of other organizations seeking to influence the outcome of federal legislation.

Students participating in the Clinic get first-hand experience representing nonprofit clients with legislative issues pending on Capitol Hill. Students also participate in classroom seminars and workshops and have the opportunity to visit some of the inner sanctums of our democracy.
