Former judicial clerks bring valuable real-world experience to our legal practice. Their experiences, skills and knowledge add to our rich and dynamic culture and contribute directly to our ability to meet the diverse needs of our clients. Because of this, we've established a legacy of attracting and retaining former judicial clerks. Morgan Lewis is proud to have over 150 former judicial clerks.

Several summer associates decide each year to apply for and take judicial clerkships. Most of them return to Morgan Lewis after their clerkships are completed. Other lawyers begin their recruiting processes with us during their judicial clerkships.

To serve the diverse needs of our clients, we actively seek lawyers with experience as judicial clerks from both state and federal courts, as well as administrative agencies such as the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC).

We recruit judicial clerks into specific practice groups and offices. Search for available positions at Morgan Lewis by location or practice group.
