Sutliff & Stout, Injury & Accident Law Firm Announces 2019 Diversity in Law Scholarship

HOUSTON - Jan. 30, 2019 - PRLog -- Sutliff & Stout, Injury & Accident Law Firm is proud to sponsor a nationwide scholarship contest for minorities pursuing a legal career.

This scholarship program is designed to promote diversity in the legal profession. According to ABA's National Lawyer Population Survey, only 12 percent of active attorneys identify as Hispanic or Latino, African American, or Asian.

To do our part towards promoting diversity within the legal profession, we are offering an annual $2,000 diversity scholarship to be put towards legal education costs.

To qualify, candidates must be accepted to, or currently enrolled in an accredited law school or paralegal program. We are asking applicants to write an essay answering the question: How will your law degree help your community? Applications are due August 1, 2019.

This is the third scholarship sponsored by Sutliff & Stout. The firm also offers scholarships to help undergraduate students and another law school scholarship. Sutliff & Stout has provided tens of thousands of dollars in scholarships and community activities.
