The Media Relations Office at Georgetown Law is part of the Law Center’s Office of Communications. We represent and promote the Law Center’s faculty, administrators, academic programs, student organizations and staff to the news media and serve as the central point of contact for members of the press seeking expert legal opinion from Georgetown Law’s community of scholars. We stand ready to assist all members of the Georgetown Law community with media outreach efforts. Here are some of the services that we provide: Press Inquiries Kara Tershel Director of Media Relations (202) 662-9037 Elissa Free Executive Director of Communications (202) 662-9519
Publicity We draft press releases to publicize news from Georgetown Law and media advisories to inform the press about upcoming Georgetown Law events. Our office can assist in determining whether a press release or media advisory is an appropriate tool for publicizing your event or announcement. Please keep in mind that news releases are for the news media. We develop press releases that have the best chance of attracting positive media coverage for Georgetown Law and media advisories for events that will draw members of the press to campus. We will disseminate the pertinent details regarding your event or announcement to national and international print and broadcast media outlets including C-SPAN, CNN, New York Times, Washington Post, Associated Press, Legal Times and National Law Journal, as well as Georgetown Law and University press including Law Weekly, The Hoya and Blue & Gray.
To maximize publicity for your event, it is important to contact the Media Relations Office as soon as the planning begins. If your event involves high-profile topics or guest speakers, you should notify us immediately at mediarelations@law.georgetown.edu.
Georgetown Law News Online The Georgetown Law Web site provides online information about campus events and activities, press releases and media advisories, Web casts and transcripts of events and a faculty experts guide. We maintain a News, Events & Publications page to allow reporters and external constituents to access ongoing news and information about Georgetown Law.
