It’s time to apply what you’ve learned in law school through real-world experience. In our summer program, you’ll learn how to put together a brief or contract, and how to collaborate with teams of lawyers and professionals to create innovative solutions.
Work Assignments
We don't put you through a formal practice group rotation. Instead, our assigning partners and work coordinators will help you discover practice areas that spark your curiosity.
Meaningful Events
The best way to get to know our lawyers is to connect and be yourself. Participate in networking events, join coffee chats and get involved in one of our many Firmwide Resource Groups (FRGs). The firm hosts a Wellness Week over the summer and sponsors related activities, including activities to encourage firm personnel to give back to their local communities through community service and charitable giving.
Mentoring
Be mentored by a team of lawyers who will invest in your development from the start. Your mentors will make introductions across the firm, spend time one-on-one to answer questions and join you for networking events. Mentors will help you secure assignments in your areas of interest and navigate the program. They can also be a sounding board as you explore your career goals.
Training
Our Summer Program Academy teaches you foundational skills in research and writing, oral communication, relationship building, client service and more. You will participate in both practice-specific courses and general sessions on career growth and networking.
Pro Bono
Working on pro bono matters helps you learn on the job and make a difference. You'll join your peers and senior lawyers working to profoundly empower people, organizations and causes.

Our diverse and inclusive culture generates ideas and innovation. Learn more about the firm's commitment to diversity.
