Sample cover letter for Internship position at Howell-Jones

The intellectual rigor and independence of my course is furthering my ability to conduct detailed research, and is enabling me to conduct critical reasoning and analysis. My experience of giving speeches to prospective parents and students as Head Girl of my secondary school greatly improved my capacity to present findings in a clear and persuasive manner, both orally and in writing. I feel that these qualities are extremely valuable for a career in law.

I am particularly interested in dispute resolution and employment law, and have identified that Howell Jones provides both of these services to your clients. I very much admire your commitment to client care, and feel that work experience with your firm would be greatly beneficial in gaining insight, first-hand information and hands-on legal experience regarding these sectors.
