Los Angeles Superior Court is currently accepting applications for its Law Clerk position.

The Law Clerk position is a coveted opportunity for a prospective, new, or experienced attorney who wants to learn lawyering directly from the decisionmakers of Los Angeles County – our judges. By working directly with a judge through the most complex cases, the Law Clerk is in the ideal position to see what works and what does not from attorneys as they try to persuade the decisionmaker. As such, this unique position provides invaluable insight and an accelerated education that only years in law practice can match.

The Law Clerk position offers prime conditions to develop legal writing skills with judges and through collaboration with Law Clerk colleagues. Law Clerks conduct thorough legal research, review motions, write briefs for the judge, and help with case management. Through these responsibilities, Law Clerks learn to write in clear and concise language, and often produce briefs that can eventually become the judge’s opinion. These refined legal writing skills and courtroom experience are often the most desired by the top law firms who recognize the value of a trial court judicial clerkship when making hiring decisions.

As a public service role, the Law Clerk position provides mission-driven experience in providing equal access to a fair and efficient administration of justice, allowing you to make a direct positive impact on your community. Additionally, unlike most law firms, the Court’s regular business hours, regular time off, and holidays support a healthy work-life balance, providing a high-quality opportunity to engage in meaningful work without intense personal sacrifice.

Whether you aspire to become a Research Attorney, Court Counsel, a Judge with Los Angeles Superior Court, or eventual employment with a top-tier law firm, the Law Clerk position is an ideal and exceptional path to endless opportunity for professional development and advancement. The unique opportunity of working directly and establishing relationships with the judges of Los Angeles County more than compensates for the remainder of a career in the law.

The Law Clerk role offers a comprehensive package of learning, professional growth, and personal fulfillment, making it a sought-after position for those in the legal field.
