Every September comes with new beginnings. Whether you’re changing wardrobes as the weather cools, or frantically rushing kids out the door for school, September is a time of transition. But there’s another great shift in the legal community that often goes unnoticed—nearly 480 new judicial law clerks start their careers in the Judiciary. 

New Jersey is unique when it comes to our law clerks. In many other jurisdictions a judicial clerkship is a full-time position, but in our state the Judiciary hires new law clerks annually for a period of one year of service. Many of these law clerks are young attorneys, oftentimes right out of law school, and they are thrown into the thick of it as if they’d been there all along.
