Our summer program offers a glimpse into the life of a junior associate at Latham & Watkins.
As a summer associate, you will join an all-star team of skilled attorneys who focus on complex patent trials, appeals, IPR/PGRs, and related business counseling. You will have the opportunity to work closely with our trial-tested team of lawyers, technical analysts, and paralegals on high-stakes matters in key patent venues and involving cutting-edge technologies.
Assigned mentors will guide you throughout the summer as you engage in substantive matters and receive real-time feedback, just like a firm associate.
You will also build meaningful relationships with Latham professionals through practice group presentation, training programs, Summer Academy, and social events.
We offer opportunities for law students at ABA-accredited schools to learn from some of the best in the profession, refine their skills, and develop their talents.
