The summer program was everything that I hoped for and then some. I am so thankful for the chance to handle such a wide variety of interesting, complex, and high-profile matters. While the work has been fantastic, the people make this firm special and I feel fortunate to have gotten to grow closer to so many of the attorneys here.

I had a great summer associate experience. I was able to work on several substantive work assignments, which I was looking forward to the most. Bracewell's welcoming environment and emphasis on community is an added bonus.
