Texas-Dallas and Ft. Worth

Intro - finally!

Hi everyone,
I've been lurking and occassionally putting in my two cents for a few weeks now so an introduction is definitely in order.

I'm a law student in DC and I'll be getting married in the DFW area after I'm done with school (and the bar exam!), so maybe around September 2012.
I gotta say, this board has been a god-send! I don't know how I'd plan a wedding long distance without your advice and reviews!

I haven't done much planning yet, but hopefully I'll spend the summer in Dallas* and take a look at venues, etc.

*depends on whether I get an internship, anyone know of a unpaid legal internships in the DFW area? (sorry for the shameless plug!)

Thanks, lovely ladies!

    Welcome!! I know absolutely nothing about the legal field here in DFW, but good luck!  I'm sure there are opportunities somewhere around here seeing as its a very large area.

    One of my very good friends interned in Dallas a few years ago... I think for the DA.  Let me ask him.

    Welcome!
    My sister lives in DC and is a para for a law firm which is actually based in Dallas--McKool Smith. I would look into an internship with them, she really likes it there.

    Thanks for the welcome, ladies!
    And concerning the legal internships, let me emphasize that I'm only looking for unpaid positions. You'd think it would be easier to work for free, huh?
    Thanks again!

    Welcome to the boards!! I can't help you with the internship, but I'm sure if you called around anyone would take you for free!

    Okay, my friend worked an unpaid internship at the Dallas County prosecutor's office in the capital murder division.

    I don't know contacts, but I know it's unpaid.  Hope that helps!
