The Bronx District Attorney’s Office is dedicated to serving the more than 1.5 million members of the Bronx community through our mission of Pursuing Justice with Integrity.

As part of this commitment, we strive to recruit and retain a diverse staff that reflects the community we proudly serve. The Bronx District Attorney’s Office is currently accepting applications from law students for its 2026 Summer Internship Program. This nine-week program will run June 1, 2026, through July 31, 2026, operating on a full-time, in-person schedule, Monday through Friday, from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Interns will be placed in one of the Office’s specialized bureaus and will receive direct supervision, mentorship, and training from an Assistant District Attorney.

Interns will observe and assist with witness interviews, hearings, and trials; listen to and transcribe 911 calls; and review police reports. They will also participate in the decision-making process regarding offers and assist with plea negotiations. Interns will engage in a rigorous and dynamic training program that includes lectures led by members of the criminal justice community and participation in several simulated practicums throughout the summer. Every effort will be made to provide each intern with a substantive writing assignment that may be used as a future writing sample in job searches.In addition, interns will benefit from robust networking opportunities designed to support their professional development and career growth. These opportunities may include small-group conversations with Assistant District Attorneys, panels featuring senior leadership, exposure to specialized units across the Office, and meet-and-greets with members of the broader criminal justice community. These engagements allow interns to build meaningful connections, explore potential career paths, and gain deeper insight into the work of a large urban prosecutor’s office.
