You will participate in all stages of litigation at the litigation level and learn from experienced lawyers. A student intern researches and prepares internal legal notes and court documents relating to a variety of federal labor and labor laws. Interns may also have the opportunity to assist in litigation before administrative judges and federal district courts, attend meetings with client agencies, contact and question witnesses, and help prepare for trial. Where possible, trainees are invited to auditions, testimonies and comparative lectures. Through these experiences, interns develop their process skills, including research and writing, case management, negotiation, and client relations.
