This is a great opportunity for incoming 1Ls or rising 2Ls who may be looking for a paid internship for the of Summer 2026 in one of our 55 FBI field offices nationwide or our FBI Headquarters in Washington, D.C. The successful applicant will also be granted a Top-Secret clearance as part of the onboarding process.
I would also be honored to have one of your law school students interning with us in sunny Honolulu!!!!
Some of the assignments former law school interns performed were: (1) briefings on SCOTUS and US Court of Appeals criminal and national security cases to our FBI agents and intelligence analysts; (2) briefings on state law issues relative to peace officer status/mental health issues/active shooter matters and concealed gun carrying; (3) researching FBI and information sharing post 9/11 with state, local and private sector partners; (4) participating in two physical fitness programs per week – team building; (5) participating in firearms safety and defensive tactics demonstrations; and (6) visiting the federal/state judges, federal prosecutors, state prosecutors, and public defenders.
We have approximately 350 FBI attorneys operating across the country on complex criminal, national security, civil, and administrative legal issues. Our FBI Honors Internship Program is a wonderful gateway to start the journey to a full-time FBI or DOJ legal career!
Please feel free to contact me if you have any specific questions on our Summer 2026 FBI Honors Internship or the application process. In addition to the summer internship, the selected interns are also allowed to continue their internships into the Fall 2026 at the local FBI field office closest to their law school campus.
Thank you for your time and all you do to encourage our future attorneys!!!!
Best,
