Our highly successful Summer Associate Program is our primary source for the recruitment of new associate attorneys. Second and third-year law students with undergraduate or graduate degrees in engineering, biochemistry, chemistry, physics, biology, and computer systems are encouraged to apply. Our 10-week program provides Summer associates opportunities for hands-on experience in patent and trademark prosecution and litigation. Summer associates undertake a variety of challenging projects and assignments that provide a realistic view of law firm life and work. In addition to the experience summer associates receive, we provide various formal and informal events planned to allow summer associates the opportunity to interact with associates and partners outside of the office.
Where appropriate and available, summer associates can attend client meetings, depositions, and court proceedings. Summer associates are provided support through assigned mentors who provide guidance, offer advice, and share their expertise. Summer associates are given feedback on their performance through formal reviews at the five-week mark, as well as at the end of the summer. Informal feedback is provided by supervising attorneys as summer associates complete various projects and assignments.
Summer associates are recruited through various efforts, including law school career fairs, on-campus interviews, and in-office interviews. Applications are typically accepted for 1L and 2L students beginning July of each year.
