Duties of Entry-level Attorneys
An entry-level attorney in the Environment and Natural Resources Division can expect to become intimately and immediately involved in a wide variety of environmental litigation; personally handle settlement negotiations; travel across the country taking depositions and negotiating consent decrees; and assist senior attorneys in major cases.

Training
Specialized programs have been developed to acquaint new employees with the Division and their work in environmental law. These programs include both individual and group orientation sessions; luncheon presentations by senior managers; section retreats; and seminars on a variety of topics, relating both to legal practice generally and to particular substantive areas of the laws. In addition, the Division regularly sponsors nationwide seminars on subjects in environmental and natural resources law.
