When is it a good time to do an internship, before you become a lawyer? -

I m talking about an internship to study with and work for someone who is currently a lawyer. Is it best during college, after college, during law school, or after law school?

Yes to all of the above. You should get as much experience in as many different legal settings as you can. The practical experience you ll get is something that you won t get in law school classes.

Get as many as you can, as often as you can. Even if its not necessarily with a law firm, if its somewhat related it will help immensely! What you ll find is that once you get one internship, it becomes much easier to get the next, and so on until you get a permanent job.

An internship is best after law school. It will help you get your foot in the door of a good company and also looks good on a resume.
