Law: Individual Job Shadow
Explore the working day of a legal professional through an individual visit arranged with a participating organization.
What you could experience
Observe suitable professional activities, ask questions about legal careers, and learn how a law office works. Hosts decide what can be observed; confidential client work is excluded.
Time commitment: A portion of a workday, up to a full day. Your invitation will specify the actual times.
Who this is for
Greater Cleveland high school students currently in grades 9–12 who are curious about law. Your grade means the school year you are currently enrolled in; during summer, use the grade you just completed. Graduated seniors are not part of this pilot.
Hosts choose students whose interests, availability, and travel area fit what they can offer. Registering does not guarantee selection.
Participating organizations
Hosts are being arranged. You can save your interest with WayIn now; no organization can view it until you return and agree to the participating host list.
You join a shared placement pool for this experience, rather than choosing a specific firm. All hosts listed when you register may consider you. New hosts need your renewed consent before receiving access.
