In this episode of Legally Blissed Conversations, we are joined by Aliza Shatzman, President and Co-Founder of The Legal Accountability Project, a nonprofit aimed at ensuring that as many law clerks as possible have positive clerkship experiences while extending support and resources to those who do not. Aliza earned her BA from Williams College and her JD from Washington University School of Law. During law school, Aliza interned with 4 different components of the U.S. Department of Justice. After law school, Aliza clerked in DC Superior Court during the 2019-2020 term.
In March 2022, Aliza submitted a Statement for the Record for a House Judiciary subcommittee hearing about workplace protections for judiciary employees, detailing her personal experience with gender discrimination, harassment, and retaliation by a former DC judge. Read Aliza's House Judiciary Statement for the Record.
Aliza regularly writes and speaks about judicial accountability. She has been published in numerous forums, including the UCLA Journal of Gender & Law, the NYU Journal of Legislation & Public Policy, Above the Law, Law360, Slate, Ms. Magazine, and Balls & Strikes.
