“I could not have asked for a more rewarding experience than the one I gained as an extern at Liz Claiborne Inc. It was a wonderful experience, and I would recommend the Externship Program to anyone who would like to gain experience in a specialized area where employment opportunities may not otherwise be available.”

“The Hofstra Law Externship Program is remarkable, and I would encourage all students to participate in it. I am truly appreciative of this program, as it has allowed me to experience what the practice of law is like in the ‘real world,’ and apply the theoretical knowledge that I learned in law school, and develop the skills necessary to be an attorney.”

“As an intern with the New York City Police Department’s Legal Bureau — Civil Section, I was treated as a staff attorney, being assigned cases and expected to see them through from intake to motion submission. From gaining significant legal research and writing experience to negotiating the basics of court motion submissions, along with working with knowledgeable attorneys with whom I retain contact, the experience with the NYPD Legal Bureau fulfilled all my externship goals.”
