The Law Student Network harnesses the power of law students to transform 6AC’s reform efforts by enlisting students passionate about criminal justice to further its mission: ensuring that no person faces potential jail time without first having the aid of a lawyer with the time, ability, and resources to present an effective defense.
The Law Student Network hosted its inaugural class in summer 2020 and has expanded since. Students are integral members of our team, making meaningful contributions to 6AC’s evaluations and policy work. We are thankful to our students for contributing to indigent defense reform and our funders for letting 6AC make this happen!
All law students who are committed to our mission are encouraged to apply for a summer internship here.

2020 Fall Internship Program
We are delighted to welcome back students Tyson Burleigh and Jala Tomlinson from 6AC’s summer internship program to continue working with 6AC for another semester! We are also excited to announce 6AC’s partnership this fall with the highly regarded Boston University School of Law (BU) Criminal Trial Practice Clinic! Nine law students in their final year at BU have been meticulously trained to defend criminal cases in Massachusetts courts. This fall, in order to augment the work they are doing in the Boston Juvenile and Boston Municipal Courts, the students will engage in a special project to enhance 6AC’s current evaluation of public defense in the neighboring state of New Hampshire. The partnership will allow students to gain a deep, on the ground perspective of the criminal legal process in another state while making a substantive, real world contribution to the mission of 6AC in supporting policy makers’ efforts to deliver equal justice. 6AC welcomes this partnership with the following students in the BU Criminal Trial Practice Clinic:
- Laura Jensen
- Maris Kramer-Brosnan
- Rozman Lynch
- Hayley Maybaum
- Kaileigh Poe
- Hanna Shah
- Alex Weinstein
- Kennedy Williams
- Tristan Worthington
