Domestic Violence Fellowship

In 2007, Professor Isabel Marcus, in honor of her four grandchildren funded a fellowship, to bring an exciting educational and legal practice-oriented opportunity for young practicing lawyers from Central Eastern Europe, the CIS, the Balkans, the Caucasus or the Central Asian Republic to the University of Buffalo Law School. The attorneys chosen must have a deep interest in domestic violence legal issues (primarily against women and children) and who works with or in a non-governmental organization concerned with domestic violence in their country.
