Jennifer LaGrange '05 Lands Prestigious Federal Clerkship

Jennifer LaGrange '05 will clerk for Judge Robert Beezer of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit. She is currently clerking for The Honorable Kathleen Cardone, West District of Texas.

 The prestige of a federal judicial clerkship follows a lawyer throughout his or her career. A judicial clerkship provides direct insight into the judicial process and is a valuable and enriching experience. A law clerk gains practical experience by attending judicial proceedings, performing legal research, and providing other assistance to the judge. Law clerks also are exposed to the methods and customs of practitioners, and learn the level of professional behavior expected of lawyers.

 The UC Davis School of Law Career Center offers workshops and information on the judicial clerkship application process.
