Internships and Externships

For interested students, LEJ does have a summer internship program. Each summer, we host from 4 to 6 law students and one non-law student (graduate or undergraduate) for clerkships. Click here for more information.

Our externship program takes place during the year, in which interested students can earn academic credit. Under the direct supervision of one of our attorneys, students will conduct research and help prepare potential litigation as well as participate in pending cases. Assignments may include drafting policy briefs, legal manuals, litigation memos and pleadings. Click here for more information.
