Apply for Jobs
Our law school maintains a database of jobs and externship opportunities on the Law Employment Opportunities (LEO) website, which is an online program that streamlines and simplifies the job searching process for La Verne Law students and alumni. With LEO, students can create their own online profile and upload their resume, writing samples, and transcripts for employers to view. Employers have the opportunity to post job opportunities at no cost for our students and alumni to view and apply for.
