Summer Program Overview

Each year, we seek to recruit a summer class comprised of second-year law students with strong academic credentials from law schools across the United States. Our summer program is designed to provide a realistic and rewarding experience of life as a first year associate at the firm.

We have no formal departments or rotation policies. Our summer associates enjoy the freedom to choose the work that interests them and to develop quickly leveraging an environment that encourages individuality. They are mentored by full time partners and associates and are given opportunities to participate in a wide range of meaningful assignments and activities such as client meetings, negotiations, court experience, travel, research and drafting briefs, pleadings and memos.

We encourage our summer associates to capitalize on the various opportunities to represent, on a one-on-one basis, pro bono clients of The Legal Aid Society of New York, who lack the legal counsel indispensable to secure benefits that profoundly impact their lives.
