...and new ideas! Be one of the VTLA firms who hires one of our Foundation’s diversity scholarship winners next summer! Let us know right away if you are interested.

Last year, we placed two scholarship winners in VTLA firms and the feedback we received was extremely positive. We need you to keep that momentum going!   

Hear what Scott Perry from Breit Biniazan had to say about his experience with Kaitlyn, one of our scholarship winners, this summer.

If you are interested in employing an award recipient next summer, please contact Lori O’Toole (804) 343-1143 ext. 312 as soon as possible.

These diversity scholarships are an important aspect of the work of the Virginia Trial Lawyers Foundation (VTLF); we are introducing a diverse group of students to a career in trial practice and to our VTLA family.  Winners are selected after interviews with the VTLF Board and receive a $5,000 scholarship. In addition, they may intern for a VTLA member law firm for a 10-week period in the summer.
