Summer Associates' Perspectives

“During my summer at U&H, I was exposed to a wide variety of assignments across many different practice areas.  Although I ultimately decided to join the litigation practice group, the breadth of my summer assignments enabled me to get to know most of the firm’s departments. While many firms have good reputations, what sets U&H aside is the people.  The friendships that I formed with my summer classmates are ones that will last a lifetime.  The relationships I have developed at U&H are very different from those of my friends at other firms.”

“While interviewing at different firms for summer associate positions, U&H’s collegial atmosphere immediately stood out to me and made it apparent that I could grow both personally and professionally at the firm. Working over the summer at U&H solidified this perception.  I was exposed to work in all departments of the firm which helped me make an educated decision on the type of law that I wanted to practice after law school. The work that was delegated to me was actual work that a junior associate would expect to see during their first years as an attorney.  Due to the size of U&H, I was able to meet practically all of the attorneys and have developed friendships that have lasted since my summer experience. U&H has been a great place to work and begin a career.  The experiences I had as a summer associate have proven to be an accurate representation of the day to day experiences I have working at U&H as an attorney.”
