New Hampshire Public Defender

This internship was an incredible experience that provided me with more than I was expecting. By having first-hand experiences, whether it was viewing a crime scene, taking a visit to the jail, obtaining records, or writing up documents for the court, you were never bored. I also got to experience court hearings, and attend trials when applicable. While the experience itself was inspiring, so were the people. Throughout my internship I developed relationships with my co-workers that made work even more enjoyable.

During my internship with the New Hampshire Public Defender I worked closely with other investigators, attorneys and their clients. I interviewed witnesses and alleged victims, wrote reports, took photographs, delivered subpoenas to witnesses, and gathered records and documentation essential to the defense. Additionally, I visited incarcerated clients to conduct interviews, obtain signatures for the release of information, and just to check in about their cases.
