NhRP Summer 2026 Legal Clerkship
The Nonhuman Rights Project
The Nonhuman Rights Project is currently seeking legal clerks for summer 2026. All law students who have completed their 2L year by summer 2026 will be eligible to apply.
We believe in integrating clerks into our work as much as possible. Legal clerks will be given the opportunity to contribute to existing projects, be mentored by experienced attorneys, and develop critical legal skills. Our summer program includes social events, opportunities to network with your fellow clerks and NhRP staff, and the ability to contribute to cutting-edge legal strategies, all while advancing our mission of securing rights for nonhuman animals.
