WHAT FORMER MORGAN LEWIS SUMMER ASSOCIATES SAY

  • "The Miami office of Morgan Lewis allows summer associates to experience big firm resources in a small office with a beautiful view. Because it's a small office, I got to know almost all of the attorneys, both at work and social events. However, because the Miami office is part of a nationwide firm, I worked on sophisticated client matters with highly skilled attorneys."
  • "Being a summer associate in the Miami office offers the best of both worlds: the resources, challenging assignments, and training opportunities of an international law firm, along with the chance to have meaningful interactions with partners, associates, and staff, which only a smaller office can offer. Not to mention, living in Miami is pretty amazing in and of itself!"
