Just like that, the summer has come to an end.
The final week was spent wrapping up a few remaining assignments, including two research projects involving civil procedure issues where existing case law was limited. Both required digging deeper than usual, thinking creatively and developing well-supported legal analyses.
One of the most meaningful parts of the week was sitting down with partners and attorneys to receive feedback on my performance throughout the summer. Hearing their perspectives and reflecting on everything I had learned over the past 10 weeks reinforced just how much I had grown as both a law student and future attorney.
The program concluded with a farewell happy hour and lunch alongside partners and attorneys from across the firm. It was a great opportunity to reflect on the relationships I built, the experiences I gained and the lessons I’ll carry with me moving forward.
I’m grateful to everyone at RumbergerKirk who invested their time, guidance and encouragement throughout the Summer Associate Program. It has been an incredibly rewarding experience, and I’m excited to carry these lessons into the next chapter of my legal career.
