State Court Judicial Clerkships
When thinking about post-graduate opportunities, please be sure to consider state court judicial clerkships. Working as a judicial clerk for a state court can provide recent graduates with the opportunity to strengthen their legal skills while developing relationships within the legal community. Unfortunately, because the application process is not centralized, it can be difficult and confusing to identify opportunities and submit applications. The CSO has a must-see resource available to help you understand and navagate the state court judicial clerkship recruiting process.
Vermont Law School has compiled general information, by court, in its annual Guide to State Judicial Clerkship Procedures. The guide is organized by state and lists pertinent information for judicial clerkship application procedures in each court. The CSO has a copy of this guide available to students in the resource room, and students may also access the guide through the CSO link on Blackboard. Please note that some courts begin accepting applications from students as early as the spring of their second year of law school! Please feel free to stop by the CSO with any questions!
