Legal Practice internships in Spain are intended to provide students and young professionals with enhanced understanding of human rights issues and the legal difficulties which members of society can face. Interns have scope to deepen their understanding of how legal assistance is provided to diverse clients. Come with a flexible mindset and openness to learn about the processes and preparations for court hearings.

This program ranges from 2-24 weeks and has start dates every Monday throughout the year.

Your fully-hosted experience includes sourcing of your internship placement, personalization of your project plan, airport pick-up, orientation, accommodation, meals, and onsite student support. See our full list of fees and inclusions on our website:

• Internship fees in Barcelona
• Internship fees in Madrid
• Internship fees in Valencia  

 
Suitable for students or recent graduates with at least one year of university study in a related topic, such as law, political science, international relations, etc. Knowledge of social media and digital communications is required. Spanish proficiency is a plus.

This internship is conducted in English; however, outside of Supervisor interactions, a language barrier should be expected, especially when it relates to local clients. Spanish-language classes are available.
 
As a legal intern, you’ll be placed in a local law firm, NGO or other company, working in a specific area of law that matches your interests. These fields can include tax, accounting, labor, mediation, criminal, family, civil, technology, immigration, gender violence, youth offending, wealth planning, and corporate. Placements are also available which relate to the design and utilization of technology within the legal industry.

Due to the breadth of possible placements, the nature of interns duties can vary greatly. General duties can include (but may not be limited to):

• Shadowing lawyers in meetings and court cases
• Researching existing cases and preparing for trials, and
• Reviewing and drafting legal documents.

While interns may not play an active role in advocacy or courtroom hearings, you can gain practical understanding of the preparation involved and the court process itself. You’ll be able to reflect on proceedings with your supervisor afterwards to ask questions and further comprehend the legal industry.
