About the role

Legal InternWant to see how lawyers shape real business decisions? Spend your summer inside the Legal Department of AmTrust Financial Services, Inc., a global specialty insurer that provides property and casualty insurance products and warranty programs worldwide. As our Legal Intern, you'll get hands-on experience in insurance regulatory law, corporate governance, employment, litigation, technology and AI, real estate, and general legal matters. You'll work side by side with in-house lawyers, paralegals, and compliance professionals and see firsthand how the practice of law works in a corporate setting. Hybrid schedule: 4 days a week in our Cleveland office and 1 day remote.
Responsibilities
What You'll Do:
  • Research statutes and regulations on real issues facing the business, including property and casualty insurance regulation (securities, insurance policy, and consumer services rules), employment, and technology, and share your conclusions with attorneys in written memos and verbal briefings.
  • Help attorneys, paralegals, and compliance professionals develop policies, training materials, and guidelines, and support document reviews and research in employment, corporate governance, mergers and acquisitions, and insurance regulatory law.
  • Sit in on meetings where Legal advises the business, including underwriting, claims, specialty risk, procurement, accounting, treasury, compliance, and investments.
  • Take on a variety of projects across practice areas, so you leave with a broad view of in-house legal work.
  • What We'll Do:
  • Pair you with in-house attorneys for mentoring and guidance throughout the summer.
  • Introduce you to senior legal leadership and help you build a professional network that lasts beyond the summer.
  • Give you hands-on experience with the legal technology and AI tools our in-house team uses every day, skills that will set you apart as you start your career.
Qualifications: A genuine curiosity for in-house legal work. Organized and detail-oriented, with the ability to manage multiple priorities. Strong writing, speaking, and legal research skills. Curious and creative, with sound judgment, a sense of ownership over your work, and a willingness to ask questions. Strong personal integrity and discretion with confidential matters. Comfortable working on a team or independently, and confident speaking up when you spot an issue. Completion of your first or second year at an accredited law school. No prior insurance experience required. This job description is designed to provide a general overview of the requirements of the job and does not entail a comprehensive listing of all activities, duties, or responsibilities that will be required in this position. AmTrust has the right to revise this job description at any time. Interested candidates should apply by sending a cover letter, resume, and transcript to Internship@amtrustgroup.com.#LI-AD1
