Law Society to award research fellowship
The Law Society’s Centre for Justice and Law Reform is inviting applications from experienced researchers and legal professionals for a one-year research fellowship.
The centre was set up by the Law Society to influence the development of the justice system and shape law reform in key areas by conducting and publishing evidence-based research, engaging with policy-makers, and advocating for the implementation of reforms.
The appointed fellow will conduct original legal research into an agreed topic in line with the centre’s thematic priorities.
Substantive monograph
The fellow will produce a substantive monograph based on their research findings, contributing to ongoing public discourse and legal scholarship. They may also publicly present their research, ensuring wide dissemination and impact.
More details on the fellowship, which the centre intends to award annually, are available on the Law Society website.
Applications should be submitted via email to CJLR@lawsociety.ie with the subject-line ‘Research Fellow 2026’. The closing date for applications is Monday 11 May.
