We offer more than just a position—we offer mentorship, courtroom experience, and an opportunity to truly grow. You’ll work alongside experienced lawyers, using your legal research and writing skills to support litigation efforts and take part in real cases. From motions and settlement conferences to preliminary inquiries and trials, you’ll be right in the heart of the action.
As your term progresses, we’ll encourage you to take the lead—independently managing files, preparing for hearings, and developing the confidence and judgment needed to succeed in litigation.
