Summer Associate Program
About the Summer Program
Our summer program is designed to provide a realistic sense of what it is like to practice law at our firm. As a summer associate, you will work on substantive assignments and collaborate with attorneys across a variety of practice areas.
Each summer associate is paired with a work coordinator who will match you with assignments aligned with your interests, provide guidance, and facilitate ongoing feedback throughout the summer. You will also have the opportunity to participate in weekly lunches, training sessions, social events and practice group meetings, offering both professional insight and opportunities to build relationships across the firm. Compensation for the program is $4,327 per week.

- Excellence and leadership in academic, professional, and personal pursuits
