Judicial Clerkships

Judicial clerkships are a superb way to start a legal career. They provide law school graduates with many benefits, including the opportunity for a mentorship with a judge, exposure to and a greater understanding of courtroom procedures, increased knowledge of state and/or federal laws, exposure to effective (and ineffective) oral arguments and written court pleadings. BYU Law School has established a Clerkship Committee, linked below, to aid students in their efforts to prepare applications for and obtain clerkships. Numerous other resources are also available to enhance the ability of students to find a well-matched clerkship.
