Legal Internship | January-June 2027
Paris, 8th arrondissement
Work on complex international matters alongside our lawyers.
The Firm
Amir-Aslani is a Paris-based international law firm.
We advise and represent sovereign States, multinational corporations, financial institutions and private clients on complex international matters where legal, geopolitical and strategic considerations intersect.
Our practice spans the full spectrum of international business law, including international commercial litigation, asset recovery and enforcement, international arbitration and investor-State disputes, investigations and white-collar crime, economic sanctions and compliance, sovereign projects and public-private partnerships, cross-border mergers and acquisitions and international structuring, as well as private wealth and Family Office matters.
The Internship
Amir-Aslani is offering a six-month legal internship from January to June 2027.
The successful candidate will work on both advisory and contentious matters, directly alongside the firm’s lawyers.
The role will include:
- conducting in-depth legal research;
- drafting legal research notes, memoranda and opinions;
- reviewing and analysing case materials;
- assisting with proceedings before French courts and in cross-border matters;
- assisting with hearing preparation;
- reviewing and drafting contracts, agreements and transactional documents;
- assisting with legal due diligence;
- preparing for and attending client meetings; and
- participating in internal working meetings.
The internship offers exposure to complex matters where legal analysis intersects with strategic, international and operational considerations.
Interns are fully integrated into the life of the firm. They work closely with the firm’s lawyers on a day-to-day basis, contribute to both formal and informal discussions around ongoing matters, and take part in events organised by the firm.
Profile
The internship is open to students currently attending a French Bar School (École d’avocats) as part of their professional training, as well as Master 2 students with a strong academic background in business law, litigation, international arbitration, private international law or international economic law.
Given the international nature of the firm’s practice, candidates must have excellent written and spoken English, ideally at bilingual level, as well as outstanding drafting skills in both French and English. The role also requires rigour, precision, intellectual curiosity and a strong sense of confidentiality.
Amir-Aslani is looking for someone who is intellectually curious, reliable and committed, with a collaborative mindset and a genuine willingness to learn while working on a broad range of complex and often unusual matters.
Previous experience at a business law firm, in arbitration or litigation, or in an international legal environment would be an advantage.
