Leading by example, the firm sponsors the following opportunities in hopes of encouraging similar-minded students to give back to their communities after completing their education.

Volunteers

We are looking for volunteers to run a publication about issues that affect our community. The right candidate will have a good sense of what makes an interesting angle to a story. The 1000Attorneys.com volunteer opportunity will improve key writing skills that will be very important both in school and as a professional attorney. Writing for our publication also utilizes research skills, which are also heavily used by legal professionals.

 

Volunteers may show samples of their work to employers in order to demonstrate their writing ability during the hiring process.

 

You will plan, coordinate, execute and edit content. The successful candidate will be able to decide which ideas should be pursued and which should get dropped in order to meet quality and accuracy standards. The goal is to provide exceptional, informative, and engaging content.

Volunteers are responsible for:

  • Coordinate online publishing cycle and manage content areas.

  • Set publication standards and establish goals and expectations.

  • Suggest stories and generate headline ideas in alignment with the needs of the community.

  • Oversee layout (artwork, design, photography) and check content for accuracy and errors.

  • Write, proofread, edit and improve stories or pieces.
