GGRM Law Firm has committed $1 million to create a scholarship endowment at the William S. Boyd School of Law at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas (UNLV). The new program is designed for first responders who want to pursue legal careers.

The GGRM scholarship will be available beginning in the 2026-2027 academic year. Eligible applicants include current and former law enforcement officers, firefighters, paramedics, EMTs, and emergency dispatchers. Recipients will receive financial assistance for tuition and related educational costs.

This initiative is a partnership between Boyd Law School and GGRM Law Firm. It aims to encourage non-traditional candidates to enter the legal field and broaden the range of experiences within the legal community.
