Welcome Paris, Eric, Phoenix and Grace! We are so excited to have you as part of our 2019 Summer Associate Program.  Paris joins us from Barry Law School and will be working in our Orlando office. Eric Lyerly joins us from Stetson University College of Law and will be in our Orlando office for the first half of the summer and Birmingham for the second half. Phoenix Barker attends the University of Miami School of Law and will be working in the Miami office. Grace Kobitter joins us from Stetson University College of Law and will be working in the Tampa office.We have a full summer planned for each of you.

For the next ten weeks, you will participate in a series of seminars (many followed by workshops) – all taught by our experienced trial attorneys and designed to hone your professional and practical skills.  These exercises will also prepare you to put your best foot forward during the highlight activity of the summer, RK’s Mock Trial.  If you have your sights set on being a litigator, then you are in the right program!  We have added a writing “competition” to the schedule this summer as well.  There will be plenty of research and writing projects, and you will be observing depositions and hearings and other events.  You will be working side-by-side with RK partners and associates on real client work. 

So get ready to roll up your sleeves, because it is going to be a fantastic summer!
