Law Clerk Program
EDC hires law students for summer clerkships as well as externships during the regular school year. Law clerks and externs are involved in substantive activities such as conducting legal research; drafting memos and pleadings; participating in client meetings, strategy discussions and negotiations; appearing before public agencies; and observing court arguments. EDC attorneys involve students in every aspect of actual cases.
Deadlines: We are no longer taking applications for summer 2026 clerkships.
Applications for semester-length externships are accepted at any time and will be evaluated on a rolling basis.
Applications: Send cover letter, resume, writing sample, law school transcript, and a list of three references to Brandi Webber, Office Manager & Event Coordinator at: [email protected].
This position can work out of EDC’s Santa Barbara office, but remote candidates will be considered. Stipend and/or housing assistance may be available.
EDC is proud to be an equal opportunity employer and is committed to cultivating a diverse and inclusive work culture. We believe that a diverse workforce that includes historically marginalized and excluded groups of people improves our ability to assist our clients; enhances intellectual engagement; inspires innovation and creativity; and promotes critical thinking and solution-finding. EDC is devoted to hiring a diverse team of qualified people with respect to gender identity (including gender expression), race, sexual orientation, family status, religion, ethnicity, age, physical abilities, and other factors. EDC will also make reasonable accommodations for qualified people with disabilities.
