About the New Civil Liberties Alliance
You may have heard that NCLA took down Chevron deference last year. Well, we are just getting started, and now is a great time to join us! NCLA pursues precedent-setting litigation to enforce constitutional limitations against the Administrative State. NCLA has devised and executed strategies for four significant Supreme Court cases, including Relentless v. Dept. of Commerce (companion case to Loper Bright) and Cochran v. SEC. Having accomplished one of our founding objectives—to overturn Chevron—NCLA has other equally ambitious goals left to pursue. NCLA seeks to immediately hire experienced trial counsel and top-notch constitutional thinkers who share its passion for restoring constitutional constraints on governmental entities.

Founded in 2017 by Columbia Law School professor Philip Hamburger, the New Civil Liberties Alliance is a nonpartisan, nonprofit law firm, which engages in public-interest litigation to defend and restore the liberty established by the U.S. Constitution. NCLA fights unlawful administrative power’s disregard of constitutional freedoms, such as jury-trial rights, due process of law, and free speech. If you are a lawyer who lives, eats, and breathes constitutional law but doesn’t mind getting into the administrative weeds where the Constitution is too often forgotten, but ever useful, then we want to hear from you!
