Job Description

Local Law Student Long-Term Paid Internships

Paid interns are assigned to work directly with experienced trial attorneys and assist the attorneys with a wide range of duties, including (1) victim and witness interviews; (2) assistance with formal plea procedures; (3) trial preparation; (4) research and writing; and (5) assistance with jury selection and jury trials. Interns routinely accompany prosecutors to court to observe and help with court dockets, hearings, and trials. Interns may also be required to complete additional assignments, specific projects, or observations as prescribed by their school or professors.

When applying, your resume will be forwarded to Division and Bureau Chiefs with paid internship openings. The Chiefs will reach out to you if they are interested in interviewing you for a paid internship position. Every applicant is subject to a full background investigation which takes about 2 weeks and there is a final review before you are offered a position. When hired, you will spend your first full day with HCDAO in orientation with our HR Division located at 1201 Franklin, 6th Floor, Houston, Texas, 77002. You will then be released to your assigned division at the Criminal Justice Center (CJC) to begin working.

You will create your schedule with your supervising attorney on your first day. Paid interns are expected to work up to 25 hours per week. This is a long term position so we will not hire paid interns that can only work a few weeks during the summer and then resign. You must be willing to work at least a semester or two with HCDAO. As an example of long term, most of our paid interns start about their 2L year and work with us until they have taken the bar exam.
