Annual “Strive to be the Best Criminal Lawyer” $2,500 College Scholarship
At the DM Cantor, their criminal defense lawyers believe in higher education, and take pride in representing people who have been accused of DUI or criminal conduct. They understand and appreciate the importance and affect that a solid education can have on the future success of a criminal law school student. They also understand the potential difficulties of obtaining a criminal law degree because of the increasing costs of tuition, text books, and the everyday expenses regarding the necessities of life. Striving to become the best criminal lawyer (or the top lawyer in any area of practice) takes a lot of hard work and dedication.
In order to help make a college or law school education a more affordable opportunity, the Arizona DUI and criminal law firm of the DM Cantor is offering a $2,500 college or law student scholarship to help current, or soon-to-be, college students ease the burden of higher education costs.

The application deadline for the 2018 Scholarship is November 30, 2018 and the scholarship will be awarded on or before December 15, 2018, based on the DM Cantor’s selection of the winner. Each essay will be equally graded on writing style, supportive facts, and the writer’s own personal thoughts/opinions, as well as technical writing ability.

Lemberg Law “Entrepreneurial Spirit” $1,250 Law School Scholarship
The most successful businesspeople in the history of the United States have all had one key attribute in common – an unshakeable entrepreneurial spirit. Whether that manifests itself in the founding of a business empire, or the creation of a never-before-seen invention, striking it out alone can be a positive – even life changing – experience.
Sergei Lemberg, Lemberg Law’s managing attorney, knows this only too well. He founded Lemberg Law over a decade ago after having spent many years working in large law firms, managing a huge caseload and a busy schedule. It was only after taking the plunge and starting his own business that Sergei Lemberg began to understand just how rewarding it can be to embrace your inner entrepreneur. It’s for this reason that he is committed to encouraging young people to follow in his footsteps.
Lemberg Law is offering a $1,250 scholarship to a law student who fosters an entrepreneurial spirit of their own.
Applications for the Lemberg Law Entrepreneurial Spirit Scholarship are due by 11:59 p.m. EST on January 15, 2019.

The H&M Law Firm Scholarship
The H&M Law Firm is a premier Los Angeles criminal defense law firm. The H&M Law Firm firmly believes that they owe the next generation of scholars – the same opportunity they had. Many of their attorneys were able to go to college, and eventually law school – only thanks to the financial aid provided to them. Whether it was the good will of friends and family members, state financial aid, or merit/alumni donations from their university – it’s the only reason each of the H&M Law Firm's attorneys were able to get to where they are today. Their team of attorneys has created a renewable, and annual, scholarship in light of this.

Law Preview Scholarships Sponsored By The National Diversity Scholarship Fund
Top law firms and companies understand that their lawyers must be diverse in order to best serve their clients. That is why many top 100 law firms and Fortune 500 have invested heavily to improve diversity among practicing attorneys and the legal community in general. These organizations understand that improving diversity in the legal profession requires more than just hiring and promoting diverse attorneys within their firms. It also requires a sustained commitment to increase the pipeline of diverse students who earn strong grades in law school and are, therefore, positioned to compete for the most sought-after jobs and become the profession's next generation of leaders and decision-makers.
Law Preview (the nation's largest law school prep course) has teamed up with Lexis Nexis, one of the world’s leading online research providers, to provide Law Preview Scholarships to select members of our entering class. Lexis Nexis has generously agreed to help entering students prepare for the unique challenges they will face during their 1L year at Cleveland-Marshall by paying the cost of tuition for a law school prep course.
