Full Job Description

The Supreme Court of Nevada is currently accepting applications for judicial law clerkships starting in Summer/Fall of 2027. There are available in-chambers positions in both Carson City and Las Vegas. Clerkships are available for either one or two years, depending on the preference of the Justice.

As a law clerk, you'll work directly with a Justice, assisting in processing appeals and writ petitions. Your tasks will include legal research, drafting bench memoranda, preparing orders and opinions, and reviewing documents produced in chambers.

Clerking at the Supreme Court of Nevada provides a rare opportunity to receive direct mentorship from a Justice on Nevada’s highest court. Law clerks work closely with their Justice on complex legal issues, gaining firsthand insight into appellate decision-making, judicial reasoning, and writing dispositions.

Please note that the role may require occasional holiday, night, and weekend work, as well as periodic out-of-town travel.

Examples of Essential Duties:

Review cases assigned to chambers
Conduct the necessary legal research in a thorough and meticulous manner
Prepare concise, well organized bench memos, opinions, and orders
Handle original petitions and petitions for rehearing
Edit own work product and that of co-clerks
Review all current decisions published by this court
Keep abreast of decisions from other courts that may be applicable to pending Nevada cases
Carefully proofread orders and opinions
Observe oral arguments

Qualifications:

Must have graduated with a Juris Doctor from an ABA accredited law school by the start of the clerkship, preferably in the top 20% of the class.

Law review or other journal experience is desirable.

Law clerks must possess exceptional legal research and writing abilities, must be flexible, and must be motivated to work independently to produce high quality work in a fast-paced appellate environment.

Applicants should submit a resume, cover letter, transcripts, writing sample, and list of three references.

Additional:

Nevada enjoys abundant sunshine throughout the year, making it an attractive destination for outdoor enthusiasts. From the stunning red rock formations of Valley of Fire State Park to the majestic mountains of the Sierra Nevada range, the state offers a diverse and breathtaking natural environment. Nevada offers recreational opportunities including golfing, biking, off-roading, hiking, skiing, and fishing. In addition, Nevada is home to iconic attractions such as the Las Vegas Strip, known for its vibrant nightlife, casinos, and entertainment. The state also hosts numerous cultural events, festivals, and art galleries that showcase its rich heritage and artistic scene. Nevada's beautiful landscape, exciting adventures, and thriving economy are just a few of the reasons to join the Silver State workforce!

Benefits include:

Health Insurance: medical, dental, life and disability insurance programs for employees and dependents/family are offered.
Holidays: 12 paid holidays per year.
Retirement: Participation in the Nevada Public Employee Retirement System (PERS).
Deferred Compensation: The State has a voluntary deferred compensation program.
No Nevada state income tax.
Service qualifies for the Public Service Loan Forgiveness program.
Flexibility: a work-life balance beyond compare!

Please note the posted salary is based on the Employee/Employer paid contribution plan to the Public Employees' Retirement System (PERS). The posted salary is subject to a mandatory 19.25% reduction as this amount is paid into PERS. This is refundable upon the end of employment.
