NRDC is seeking to hire a cohort of Summer Legal Interns to work on cases and projects with attorneys on our Litigation Team and within core issue areas (Human Health, Equity & Justice, Climate & Energy, and Wildlife). Intern positions are available in our New York, D.C., Chicago, Santa Monica, and San Francisco offices.
This posting is specifically for:
· full-time law students in their 2L year and
· part-time law students who have completed at least one year of coursework and who will not graduate before summer 2025.
There will be a separate posting for 1L positions later this fall, details below.
Responsibilities
NRDC’s summer legal interns support a broad range of our legal and policy advocacy. In past summers, intern projects have included researching and preparing legal memos in support of litigation and rulemaking proceedings; interviewing NRDC members and preparing standing declarations; helping draft and review portions of pleadings and briefs; helping prepare comments to submit to administrative agencies or legislative bodies; and helping craft proposed legislation to address environmental and public health problems. Our interns play an active role on the frontlines to protect our planet and the communities that depend upon it.
Qualifications
This internship is designed for current law school students. Prior experience in environmental law or with environmental issues is not required. When assessing candidates for the summer internship, we look for:
Strong legal writing, analytical, and oral communication skills;
Experience effectively working on a team;
Creativity and resourcefulness;
Commitment to public service, equity, or justice;
Growth mindset and openness to feedback;
Demonstrated ability to work with people across different social identities and backgrounds;
Record of academic and/or professional accomplishment; and
Commitment to NRDC’s values and mission.
A successful candidate need not satisfy all of these criteria. Because a key purpose of our summer legal intern program is to help our interns learn and develop new legal skills, we welcome applicants who have room to grow as legal writers, researchers, and communicators.
