LexisNexis Passwords for Public Interest Work

LexisNexis has announced a new program called ASPIRE (Associates Serving Public Interests Research) that provides passwords to 2009 law graduates who are volunteering or working in public interest law. This program includes recent graduates who have had their Fall Associate positions deferred as well as those who are doing public interest work while searching for law firm employment.

If you are eligible, complimentary LexisNexis access will be provided throughout your public interest employment period, up until September 2010 maximum. Public interest employment must be for a non-profit or charitable organization. Government employment is excluded from this program. Documentation confirming your eligibility for this program must be included, i.e., a letter from your firm or public interest organization.

Free LexisNexis access will include federal/state cases, codes, regulations, and law reviews. To ensure you don’t receive unanticipated or unwanted charges, other materials will not be visible. Once your registration and documentation are received, we will reactivate your law school ID no later than two business days prior to your start date. If applying after your start date, we will reactivate your law school ID within two business days.
