UJUDICIAL INTERN DIRECTORY

Each semester, many Wayne Law students seek judicial internships as a means to gain legal experience and exposure to the federal and state court systems, and develop professional relationships with judges, judicial law clerks and staff. Several current and/or former judicial interns have graciously agreed to speak with prospective judicial interns regarding the application and interview process, day to day work experience, and other issues that merit consideration in opting to pursue a judicial internship. This directory identifies those kind individuals and the courts and judges for whom they interned. Feel free to contact them.
