The Internship Placement Process

Law

Lawyers act as both advocates and advisers in our society. As advocates, they stand for an individual in criminal and civil trials by presenting evidence and arguing in court to support their defense. As advisers, lawyers counsel their clients about their legal rights and obligations and suggest particular courses of action in business and personal matters. Many lawyers work in a private practice and focus on civil or criminal law. In criminal law, lawyers defend or prosecute those who have committed or have been affected directly by crime. Civil law encompasses issues such as wills, trusts, contracts or any general issue that requires the judicial system to arbitrate an agreement between two or parties.

Lawyers typically specialize in a specific area of interest - personal injury, environmental, intellectual property, bankruptcy, and many more. Corporate law, which concerns the legal formation and governance of corporations, represents another significant section of the legal profession.

A CE law intern could work in a private law office, public agency, or court of law. Learn about the field of law and the U.S Judicial system, visit a court room, and learn from partners, associates, and paralegals.

Past CE Law interns have:

  • Shadowed judges and lawyers during trials, hearings, and court cases
  • Analyzed case reports and interacted with judges, lawyers, and administrators
  • Assisted lawyers with case research and client management
  • And much, much more...

Testimonials

While being at the Courthouse my perspective on the field of law has change greatly. Previously, my perspective was based purely on stereotypes and assumptions. While observing the judges and listening to the case while they listen, I have learned that while you may feel sympathy towards one side or the other it is crucial for the judge to make their decision based purely on who followed the law more. In essence judges are readers of the law

After 3 – 4 weeks working with lawyers, seeing trials, I have learned that Law just isn’t for me. I’m so glad I didn’t go through 8 years of school, landing a job, then finding that out the hard way!
- Jared
Working in the Courthouse was so intense, especially Mondays and Thursdays with hundreds of cases per day. I learned the entire process from beginning to end and LOVE law!
