Vacancy student intern employment law
- (4 days a week)
At Sorensen Lawyers, as a student intern you will perform supporting and in-depth work in the area of employment law in the broadest sense. Our firm consists of approximately 10 attorneys and legal assistants who work closely and with joy for the profession. The lawyers, legal assistants, work students, interns and secretaries form a friendly and close-knit team. Sorensen Lawyers stands for high-quality expertise, decisiveness and speed. As a student intern, you will contribute to this. The office has a friendly atmosphere and open culture: in addition to hard work, there is also room to laugh, chat over coffee and have drinks.
The lawyers are supported by several students and interns, both legal and secretarial. Your work will include drafting opinions, agreements and memos. In doing so, you will be supported by our helpful legal staff and attorneys. In addition, you will research various, not always common, legal issues and keep our attorneys up-do-date on recent employment law developments. You will work extensively with our attorneys, being an essential support to the practice. This internship will enrich your CV with experience at the best niche employment law firm in Rotterdam and prepare you for the (employment) law profession. Moreover, if the collaboration is mutually beneficial, our attorneys are eager to explore a possible work-study position for you at Sorensen Lawyers.
