Where curiosity meets technology.

Our Fellows work closely with attorneys across the firm on cutting-edge legal questions involving privacy, cybersecurity, artificial intelligence, online platforms, and other emerging technologies. We look for candidates who are intellectually curious, collaborative, and eager to engage with complex issues shaping the digital world. In addition to supporting client work, Fellows often contribute to research, writing, and industry engagement—developing practical experience while gaining a deeper understanding of how technology law evolves in real time.

WHAT FELLOWS DO

Fellows work closely with attorneys across the firm and may contribute to:

  • Research and analysis on emerging issues in privacy, cybersecurity, AI, and digital platform regulation
  • Client matters involving regulatory compliance, investigations, litigation, and other technology-related issues
  • Writing, speaking, and engagement with the broader technology policy and civil society community
ABOUT THE FELLOWSHIP

The ZwillGen Fellowship is designed for early-career attorneys interested in working at the intersection of law, technology, and public policy. Fellows work alongside ZwillGen attorneys on a wide range of issues involving privacy, cybersecurity, online platforms, artificial intelligence, and other emerging technologies.

During the Fellowship, participants gain exposure to both counseling and litigation matters while contributing to substantive client work, research, and thought leadership. Fellows are also encouraged to engage with the broader technology policy community through writing, events, and collaboration with organizations working on Internet, privacy, and civil liberties issues.

The program is intended to provide meaningful, hands-on experience and an opportunity to explore the evolving legal landscape surrounding technology and digital platforms.


HANNAH SCHALLER MEMORIAL SKYLARK FELLOWSHIP

In addition to the ZwillGen Fellowship, we will invite a small number of applicants to be considered for the Hannah Schaller Memorial Skylark Fellowship, created in honor of our colleague and former Fellow, Hannah Schaller. This Fellowship recognizes a recent law graduate who demonstrates a strong interest in privacy law and a commitment to community engagement, reflecting the curiosity, generosity, and spirit that Hannah brought to her work and the broader privacy community.
