The summer associate program at The Stolar Partnership LLP is a rewarding experience for law students and provides an introduction to the work and real-life experiences of attorneys in private practice. Students are assigned real legal projects and responsibilities in which they are able to apply their law school knowledge and education.
Our Firm does not use a rotation process for assignments. Instead, all projects will go through the summer coordinator and the coordinator will distribute assignments to the students. This ensures the student will receive projects from all practice areas and will also give each student a broad exposure to the firm's culture.
In addition to each student being able to refine his or her research and writing skills, they will have many opportunities to attend and observe various depositions, trials, hearings, closings, and client meetings.
The summer associate program is offered to law students following their 1st and 2nd years of law school.1st Year Law Students

The Stolar Partnership LLP adheres to the National Association of Law Placement guidelines. Students will interview with, and be evaluated by, members of the hiring committee, which consists of both partners and associates. Decisions will be based on both educational and professional performance.
