The Trial Lawyers College Rodney King Civil Rights Scholarship honors the enduring legacy of Rodney King, and the movement for justice his story continues to inspire. This scholarship reflects TLC’s commitment to providing civil rights lawyers training and support to empower them in the battles of this unique and profoundly important area of trial practice.
The scholarship also recognizes the lifelong civil rights advocacy of Milton Grimes, who served as King’s lead trial attorney, winning a $3.8 million civil judgment in King’s 1994 landmark civil rights jury trial. Milton Grimes, a longtime faculty member and former Vice-President of Trial Lawyers College, dedicated his career to training lawyers to fight for the voiceless and defenseless.
