SUMMER ASSOCIATE PROGRAM

Our summer program is designed to provide the Firm and the participating law students with the opportunity to get to know one another and experience our daily practice. Each student is involved in real projects for real clients and attends events such as depositions, business transaction closings and court proceedings.

In addition to feedback on individual projects, summer associates receive two formal evaluations. The mid-summer evaluation provides the summer associate with feedback and advice to improve their developing legal skills. We are committed to the success of the participants. In fact, we hire only the number of second year students that we anticipate needing for the following year’s class of new associates.

Social activities are a necessary part of the summer program to allow our summer associates to get to know us in more relaxed settings. Our social events change from year to year, but typically include a kick-off party, a golf outing, and a day of boating, as well as spontaneous events throughout the summer.

In addition to considering applications from write-in candidates, we will be conducting preliminary interviews of law students at the following schools and career fairs:
