Join Us for the Summer

Serving as the primary avenue for the firm’s new-attorney legal recruiting efforts, our Summer Associate Program offers summer associates a firsthand knowledge of the practice of law. Throughout the eight-week program, our lawyers actively engage summer associates in their work and consider them integral members of the team.

Summer associates will gain experience in a number of practice areas to get a sense of law firm life. They will participate in a variety of professional development programs and join the Firm at its many social activities, including our Summer Family Outing, happy hours, young professional networking events and more.

As a summer associate, I was immersed into real world, substantive assignments for clients and received valuable guidance and feedback from experienced attorneys. I also got a feel for the unique, community-oriented culture of Shulman Rogers through lunches, networking events and off-campus social activities. I am looking forward to returning as an associate after graduation!"

"Spending my 2L summer at Shulman Rogers was the best decision I made in law school. The summer program is filled with meaningful and exciting experiences where you can learn and grow as a future attorney while also providing a candid look into the life of a first-year associate. Importantly, Shulman Rogers is one big family and they welcome you in the moment you enter. Overall, I wouldn’t trade this opportunity for anything else and highly recommend anyone to spend their summer at Shulman Rogers."

"I am so grateful for my experience as a Summer Associate at Shulman Rogers. It gave me the opportunity to learn from and interact with every Department at the Firm. I was also able to form connections with future coworkers and mentors. Because of my experience from the summer, I feel (more) prepared and look forward to transitioning to a permanent role with the Firm."

Rebekah Paradis, Summer Law Clerk 2022
"I am grateful that I spent my 2L summer at Shulman Rogers because it was an invaluable experience and changed the trajectory of my legal career. Shulman Rogers’ summer experience is unique because summer associates have the opportunity to work with different practice areas instead of being assigned to one department. This allowed me to explore several areas of the law that I was interested in, helped me determine what area of the law I wanted to practice, and provided me with the opportunity to get to know partners, associates, and staff throughout the firm."
