Legal Internship
Animal Partisan
Animal Partisan (animalpartisan.org) is a new legal advocacy organization focused on ending the suffering of animals in slaughterhouses, farms, and laboratories by discovering, exposing, and challenging unlawful conduct in all its forms.
Our goal is to develop legal interns into future animal lawyers. As such, legal interns are an integral part of our work, helping create and develop new legal actions as well as supporting existing cases. Interns may work on legal research and writing, drafting enforcement letters, analyzing potential targets for legal action, writing and submitting public records requests, or supporting filings on current cases. Interns will be exposed to a wide range of legal subject areas, including torts, criminal law, administrative law, constitutional law, environmental law, securities law, and others.
We accept applications for legal internships on an ongoing basis and offer between two and four internships each semester during the spring, summer, and fall. Interns are expected to commit at least 8 hours/week during the spring and fall semesters and 40 hours/week during the summer.
Current law students with a passion for animal issues and an interest in developing legal skills while supporting a small, developing organization, are invited to apply. Internships are conducted remotely and are unpaid.
Current law students interested in an internship should submit (1) a cover letter, (2) resume, (3) current transcript, (4) writing sample, and (5) three references to info@animalpartisan.org.Please indicate which semester you would like to intern. Application materials should be combined into a single package.
