Last week, our Summer Associates participated in a dynamic Lunch & Learn session with Senior Attorneys Loren Laskoski and Erica Pereira. They delved into the intricacies of the client intake process and emphasized the importance of building strong client relationships right from the start. Our Summer Associate program is designed to provide law students with invaluable mentorship from our experienced attorneys, offering insights and knowledge that go beyond the classroom. We are now accepting applications for the 2025 Summer Associate program. If you're a rising 2L student eager to learn and grow with us, explore the program details at the link below. #LegalCareers #SummerAssociates #Mentorship #LawStudents #ClientRelations https://lnkd.in/eZyuYaDn

Being a summer associate in 2021 meant a remote experience for my entire class. My firm sent me a laptop and monitor, and I set up in my law school's library for the summer. There are benefits and drawbacks to any situation, but the biggest downside to that summer was the lack of face-to-face interaction. We did the best we could with the cards we were dealt. I still made some connections, but nothing like I could have had we been in-person. So my advice to summer associates is take advantage of the opportunity to make connections this summer. The relationships you build this summer will prove invaluable when you are navigating associateship post-graduation. Go to all the events. Get people to talk about themselves. And remember their names. #summerassociates #younglawyers #biglaw #connections #networking

Treat your summer-associate experience like an improv performance. To the summer associates starting their new positions, keep in mind the rule-of-thumb many improv comics employ: "Yes, And." Walking into my first summer job, I felt like a fish out of water. So many of my law-school peers had studied pre-law in undergrad; had already interned for firms; and/or had family members who practiced. I, however, had a rhetoric degree; some teaching experience; and a firefighter father and a social-worker mother. Although I now realize that my semi-unique background is a strength, as I walked into the first summer-associate meeting back in 2021, I felt like I didn't belong. I was therefore determined to never appear out of place. This mentality didn't entirely hinder my experience. It encouraged me to say "yes" to almost any project an associate or partner offered me, which I always recommend. Exposing yourself to a variety of practice areas and assignments is the point of a law-school summer job; it helps you ascertain what you want your future career to look like. But trying to appear knowledgeable regardless of the situation meant I didn't seek necessary information. I avoided asking whether the assigning attorney knew of helpful resources or seminal cases to provide guidance on the project. I didn't reach out for clarification if I felt that I was missing pertinent facts. I agreed to any project without posing follow-up questions. I said "yes" but dodged the "and." It wasn't until I switched from a yes-man mentality to a yes-and mentality that I truly benefitted from my summer experience. I learned new tips and tricks to expedite the research process, my drafting time shortened, and I started to build more rapport with the firm's attorneys. So, say yes to the projects, even the ones seemingly outside your zone of interest. But follow the "yes" with "and," asking questions to ensure you understand the scope and particulars of the assignment. Being inquisitive doesn't make you amateur, inferior, or unintelligent. It doesn't make you look out of place. It makes you a lawyer. And asking the right questions? Well, that makes you a darn good one. #newlawyer #firstgenlawyer #summerassociate

A recent JD graduate who excels in relationship cultivation, meticulous project management, and strategic insights across legal, healthcare, and business sectors. I specialize in public affairs and health law expertise.
Law school does not always teach you the hands-on skills you need to be a lawyer. Law school makes you book smart, but externships and internships make you "street smart." At least lawyer street street-smart. Check out this article by one of my best friends from law school, Casey Erwin, to learn more about externships' pros (and cons)!

Optimal Counsel LLP's 2L Summer Fellowship kicked off this year in June, with the excellent Cole Horton joining us this summer from Duke. We're now reviewing applications for Summer 2025 and encourage any interested rising 2Ls to e-mail us at careers@optimalcounsel.com with a Resume and 1L Transcript. Details about career opportunities at Optimal, including our recruiting requirements, are available here: https://lnkd.in/gZBQpZV8 A lot of elite boutique law firms like to pretend that the *absence* of junior attorneys is some kind of positive. We fully disagree and have disagreed for a very long time. Some of our (now) senior attorneys have been with our team since their 2L year in law school and we're all the better for having those "lifers" on our team. For boutique law firms to scale and play a meaningful role in the market, they must recruit and train juniors. And with the right technology and learning infrastructure, having those juniors around maximizes efficiency for clients, who don't need or want Partners doing "the basics" when a well-trained junior will do. Our 2L Fellow program is a win for our firm and a win for high-performing ambitious law students who want something different (*very* different) from the classic BigLaw path.

Law students, there’s lots of talk about learning from your mistakes but not enough focus on learning by being able to laugh at yourself. Humor builds character and humility. Taking your mistakes in school or your intern/externships seriously should involve taking your ego lightly! #lawstudent #lawstudents #lawschool
