Public Interest Law Foundation (P.I.L.F.)

Mission Statement
Our mission is to educate, encourage, and provide financial support for law students to consider and explore careers and volunteer opportunities in public interest law that help individuals and benefit the community, while enhancing Chapman Law School’s presence and reputation.

PILF Services
The Public Interest Law Foundation (PILF) provides grants to law students who wish to work at summer public interest jobs that offer little or no pay. Many public interest law employers desperately need student legal help but are unable to afford to pay for the help they need. PILF provides financial support through grants to these student employees s o that they can get the experience they need, and the employers can continue to provide the public with much needed legal support.
