"It’s amazing to think we are in the 13th year of this program," said Erum Kistemaker, the firm's managing attorney and shareholder. "We love welcoming students each year and it’s tremendously exciting for us to help them as they build strong foundations for their futures in the practice of law.”

The students may participate in professional development workshops and are provided with opportunities to interact with the local legal community, in addition to assisting in the day-to-day business of the firm, the press release states. They also receive an attorney mentor for the duration of the internship. 

Most of the firm’s interns have gone on to pursue law degrees and are practicing attorneys.
