Legal Associate Intern

We practice general law in a small town, so one day might be a closing and the next a custody hearing. Case management runs on Clio, and billing is done in-house. Paralegals rarely work weekends, though trial prep can change that.

The internship

This is a research and writing internship. No court appearances or client meetings. Our team is spread across 14 countries. Headquarters is in Salem. The internship is fully remote. Interns join our Salem team on daily calls and get a named mentor. Our standups are at 9:00 AM Pacific.
