By Lioba Mueller

Ruchelman P.L.L.C. actively participates in the extern arrangement for students in the LLM Program at New York Law School. We provide real life professional experience to the extern and the extern receives two credits towards his or her degree requirement. Our younger lawyers benefit by providing hands-on supervision of the extern, a needed step in professional development. Recently, we expanded our extern program to include European externs and trainee lawyers. Lioba Mueller spent two months with us as an extern, sponsored by the University of Bonn. She also qualified for a PROMOS scholarship, offered by the German Academic Exchange Service, under the German Ministry of Education and Research. In her article, Ms. Mueller tells of her experience in the U.S., both professionally with us and socially with others. Our experience with Ms. Mueller is that doing a good deed is, indeed, its own reward.  See more →
