**MEMBERS ONLY**SIGN UP NOW***. appreciates the importance of hiring talented, young attorneys, and actively seeks the most highly qualified law students. A high grade point average is an important element of this search; however, qualities like passion, curiosity, dedication, approachability and willingness to be coached and be part of a team are equally significant traits that we look for because they contribute to becoming a successful attorney and valuable member of our firm.
Representatives of the firm conduct on-campus interviews with first-year law students in the spring of each year and second-year law students in the fall of each year. Notice of the interviews will be provided to the schools in advance of the interview date. Those students accepting an offer from the firm to participate in our summer program will work with us approximately six weeks. During this period, the students, under the supervision of several of the firm’s attorneys, are given the opportunity to gain hands-on experience in the same environment they will encounter as a practicing attorney with the firm. They play active roles in ongoing cases and transactions and are provided opportunities to attend trials, closings, depositions, contract negotiations, hearings and client meetings. Summer associates are given the opportunity to split time between the firm’s transactional and litigation practice groups. However, if a summer associate is interested in a particular practice area, assignments will be structured to allow in-depth exposure to the issues and attorneys within that practice area as much as possible.
Another critical component of the firm’s summer program is the opportunity for summer associates to get to know our attorneys outside of the work environment. The summer program includes a variety of social events planned to provide an opportunity to discover the personality of our firm and the interests of our members. Spouses and significant others are invited to attend many of these events because we feel that, as important as it is for summer associates and the firm’s attorneys to get to know one another, it is equally important for everyone to meet and to get to know each other’s families. We also have a monthly firm lunch for all members of the firm, including attorneys, summer associates and staff.
