About the role

Justia, Inc. in Kentucky is seeking an internship for a candidate interested in entertainment law, copyright regulation, and contracts. This position supports our legal team with research, document prep, and record management. You will coordinate with our lawyers, assist in contract searches, and register works with Performance Rights Societies and the US Copyright Office. Prior music business exposure and coursework are valued.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
