Summer Associate Program

On any given day, you might find yourself immersed in a deposition, trial, negotiation session, document drafting, client meeting or some other hands-on professional work experience. We encourage you to participate in practice areas that pique your interest and that align to our key industries of focus, including undertaking pro bono work.

We believe a great legal education includes mentorship, formal training, and opportunities to apply what you have learned at school and in the office. From the anatomy of a corporate deal transaction and introduction to board meetings, to deposition training, jury selection, mock trial, and foundations of intellectual property, you can expand your knowledge in a number of areas.

Our program helps you get to know other summer associates and colleagues on a personal level. Following the program, you can maintain and grow these connections.
