Hybrid Legal Intern
The Center for Disability & Elder Law (CDEL) hosts Legal Interns each academic year and during summer months. For Summer 2026, the Legal Intern will participate in a hybrid, full-time internship opportunity, and CDEL will provide training and supervision for the student. Applicants should be a rising second or rising third year law student.
For Summer 2026, we currently anticipate that interns will work both in-office and remotely. Opportunities to participate in CDEL community clinics, workshops, the guardianship help desk and the recorder's division help desk may be available. Internship activities will be available depending on health and safety recommendations.
The Legal Internship is unpaid. However, in addition to working with law schools offering externship credit, there may be funding options available for CDEL Legal Interns through law schools or outside agencies.
Interns will be responsible for managing cases and a client case load under supervision. Interns participate in all aspects of client files, including screening, intake, document review and full representation. The student will gain experience in the following practice areas and develop the stated skills:
Practice Areas:
Estate planning
Guardianship
Housing
Collections
Financial Abuse
Family Law
Skills:
Interviewing candidates for service
Document review
Direct legal assistance (under supervision)
Litigation (under supervision)
Students interested in Elder Law, Disability Law, Public Interest and Housing Law are especially encouraged to apply.
