[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When I did criminal defense work, I took on unpaid interns. Was it legal? Idk, but I went out of my way to make it useful to them. [b]I scheduled hearings on days when they were in,[/b] I got them approved to go into the prisons with me, I looked for discovery that was interesting and asked them to review it. They actually saw the life of a defense attorney.[/quote] You, as a defense attorney, were able to control a judge's schedule ???[/quote] DP, but you are clearly not an attorney. There are plenty of motions that the attorney files and controls which motions day docket they will be on. As far the legality of it, I don't get the sense the firm can't pay minimum wage. It's more likely they don't actually have any need for OP's daughter and the act of training her makes their job harder, so they wouldn't be doing it at all if it wasn't free.[/quote]
