The Maineri Law Firm Higher Education Scholarship

Applications Open for Spring 2025

At Maineri Law Firm, we believe in providing legal representation for people in need, and we understand the difficulties that families often face when they are affected by serious injuries. We also know the importance of education, and we want to provide support for students who are looking to better themselves, pursue career opportunities, and seek education that goes beyond a four-year undergraduate degree.

Through the Maineri Law Firm Higher Education Scholarship, we provide a $1,000 scholarship to an undergraduate student each semester. Students who plan to pursue graduate degrees in certain fields may apply for the scholarship, which may be used to pay tuition costs or other expenses related to a college education, such as books, supplies, or room and board. If you have questions or concerns, you can reach our scholarship team by email at scholarship@mainerilaw.com.
