2018 Feb 20

Shannon Fredricksen of Springdale, AR, is among a group of 10 University of Arkansas at Little Rock students who are working as law clerks for Arkansas Attorney General Leslie Rutledge's office during the spring 2018 semester.

The law students will work in various departments to assist with legal research, draft memos and legal documents, and accompany lawyers at trials, client meetings, and hearings.

"Attorney General's office law clerks work closely with some of Arkansas's top attorneys," Attorney General Rutledge said. "This program is a great service-learning opportunity for students to be exposed to the fulfilling experience of working in the public service sector. Law clerks are a valuable asset to the people of Arkansas."

Fredricksen, a second-year student at the UA Little Rock Bowen School of Law, is clerking in the Public Protection Department. She graduated from Wayne State College in Wayne, Nebraska, in 1997 with a Bachelor of Arts in communication arts.
