The UW Law Professional Mentor Program pairs JD students with professional legal mentors. Professional mentors and student mentees are paired based on common characteristics such as practice area interests, undergraduate institution, or previous employment experiences.
To improve the quality of legal services, regulate the legal profession and promote goodwill among the legal profession and the public, the WSBA maintains a Affinity Bar Association webpage as a service to legal professionals and the public to find information about an affinity bar association they may be interested in.
Many RSOs also offer mentorship programs. Contact an RSO to learn about their particular program.
