Summer Program Overview


Our summer program is designed to provide an opportunity for summer associates to explore all areas of our practice; participate in client meetings, court hearings, depositions, and trials; and work with many of the firm's attorneys. The goal is for summer associates to end the summer with a sense of what practicing as an attorney at Irell & Manella is really like. We also want summer associates to develop relationships with each other and their future colleagues.
