Please consider my application for a clerkship in your chambers for the 1-year term starting on 8/5/2019. I greatly enjoyed meeting you over the summer while I was interning with Chief Judge Barbara Lynn. I admire your humility and sense of service. Indeed, thank you for the amazing breakfast you organized in the court to allow all the interns and the clerks to get to know one another.
Currently, I am a third-year law student at the Thurgood Marshall School of Law. Although I attend school in Houston, I intend to return to Dallas, my hometown to practice upon graduation. I am particularly inclined to intern with you because of your impeccable record. Your commitment and contribution to the judicial system and our community in general

    After meeting Laura Devine at an internship fair last fall on my campus, she made a lasting impression on me that left me inspired to be a part of this program if I received an opportunity. Laura seemed elated when explaining the program and I really appreciated the time she took to expand on her experiences with the program. It was inspiring to see someone so passionate for helping others, while also learning a great deal about the legal system, as I strive to do. I want to help others like Laura has, as this process of being a self-representing litigator, though I have not been in that position, must be incredibly daunting and exhausting. I hope that when anyone is distressed I can assist them, and it seems like this is an amazing organization for me just to do that.

    My previous work experiences have been fundamental to my progress. Especially whilst shadowing a barrister at both Thames Magistrate Court and Snaresbrook Crown Court. This experience enabled me to refresh the preconceptions (such as those from TV productions) in favour of a more realistic insight into the legal field. I sat in 32 cases, each case reiterating my inner yearning to study Law. I would have strong views on how I’d potentially handle each case which established that I’d later use my law degree to become a barrister/which confirmed my thoughts of Law as a career.

    I first became interested in studying Law after visiting my local Magistrates' Court in the City Centre. After witnessing the impact a Lawyer could have on the outcome of a case and on a person's life, it came to my attention that a career in Law offered a career in which my work made an impact in the world around me. Law also offers a career in which I could directly see the consequences of my work. Laws, in my opinion, are the cogs in the machinery of society; they are guidelines and deterrents that are fundamentally essential for humanity to function. Law is the combined public conscience that tells us right from wrong.
