Hybrid Legal Intern
The Center for Disability & Elder Law (CDEL) hosts Legal Interns each academic year and during summer months. For Summer 2027, the Legal Intern will participate in a hybrid, full-time internship opportunity, and CDEL will provide training and supervision for the student. Applicants should be a rising second or rising third year law student.
For Summer 2027, we currently anticipate that interns will work both in-office and remotely. Opportunities to participate in CDEL community clinics, workshops, the guardianship help desk and the recorder’s division help desk may be available. Internship activities will be available depending on health and safety recommendations.
The Legal Internship is unpaid. However, in addition to working with law schools offering externship credit, there may be funding options available for CDEL Legal Interns through law schools or outside agencies.
Interns will be responsible for managing cases and a client case load under supervision. Interns participate in all aspects of client files, including screening, intake, document review and full representation. The student will gain experience in the following practice areas and develop the stated skills:
Practice Areas
Skills
Estate planning

CDEL provides pro bono legal services to Cook County, Illinois low-income older adults and persons with disabilities.
The Center for Disability & Elder Law (CDEL) was founded to provide legal services to low income residents of Cook County, Illinois who are either elderly or who have permanent disabilities. Studies report that more than eighty percent (80%) of all low income individuals are unable to obtain legal representation, and that all of those who live in poverty will experience at least one legal problem each year. The need for legal assistance and services on the part of these clients has increased dramatically over the past ten years and continues to grow. The number of persons in the United States over 65 is expected to double by 2030. Ten years ago almost fifty million Americans were affected daily by a disability - one out of every five. This number is also expected to increase significantly. These national trends are evident in Illinois and in Cook County as well. Dedicated volunteer attorneys from some of the largest law firms in Chicago and from firms and corporations located throughout Cook County, as well as paralegals, provide over ninety percent (90%) of the all of the legal services CDEL delivers, pro bono, to our clients. Because CDEL staff screens and creates client files, coordinates the Initiatives, and provides training and support to our volunteers, they are able to focus their valuable time on direct provision of legal services. CDEL strongly encourages the involvement of newly-licensed attorneys, as well as paralegals, law students and interns, to engage their interest and foster their commitment to pro bono public interest law early in their careers.
