Georgetown Law Students Can Access LAP’s Database for Free, Thanks to Generous Donation
Thanks to a generous donation by Georgetown Law Professor Brian Wolfman, the next 50 Georgetown students who subscribe to LAP’s Clerkships Database can access the platform for free this year.
Georgetown students can register for Database access at survey.legalaccountabilityproject.org to access candid clerkship information, beyond what their law school provides, right now. This is LAP’s first Database donation of the 2025-26 School Year: donors covered the Database cost for students at 8 law schools last year. LAP is proud to be a trusted resource for thousands of clerkship applicants - including more than 100 Georgetown students last year - who use our award-winning Database to research judges and judicial clerkship opportunities.
As LAP’s work has underscored over the past few years, “Glassdoor for Judges” is particularly urgent. While we’ve achieved incredible impact for law students and law clerks and created significant nationwide change, sadly, the federal judiciary’s workplace conduct reforms have been minimal. Federal law clerks still lack workplace protections, safe and anonymous reporting mechanisms, and fair and unbiased judicial complaint processes; and judges are rarely held accountable for misconduct. That’s why it’s crucial for clerkship applicants to avoid abusive judges altogether, and instead identify positive work environments. LAP’s Database does just that, creating transparency where before there was none.
LAP encourages more supporters to donate on behalf of students again this school year, thereby ensuring broad access to this critical information. It has never been more important to ensure that all clerkship applicants can identify positive work environments and avoid abusive judges.
