How It Works

The Los Angeles Summer Program

Our full-service Los Angeles office includes more than 65 of the brightest, most motivated and personable lawyers in Los Angeles. The backbone of our success is recruiting the very best law students from around the country. We hire individuals who demonstrate a strong potential for becoming excellent lawyers. We are committed at every level to training associates and helping them to excel. We want our junior lawyers to take an active role in shaping the future of our practice. Our open, informal working environment encourages the constant sharing of ideas and strategies, which brings wisdom and experience to new practitioners and a fresh perspective to more senior lawyers.

Our lawyers also find common ground in their passion for very different areas of practice. Our litigators are zealous advocates, whether their focus is intellectual property, antitrust, securities law, creditors' rights, labor and employment, real estate, insurance liability, criminal defense or general commercial disputes. Katten's corporate and real estate lawyers take pride in bringing innovative solutions to their clients' transactions and nurturing new businesses from infancy to maturity. Our finance and reorganization practitioners take pride in their ability to guide clients through both difficult economic times and periods of economic growth. Estate planners and probate lawyers feel a personal commitment to providing a secure future for clients and their heirs. Members of the entertainment and media group enjoy counseling clients in the application of intellectual property concepts to emerging technology, as well as in the development, production, financing and distribution of new movies and television programs.  

At Katten Muchin Rosenman LLP, you will have a realistic experience of life as an attorney. This includes:

  • a position as a valued member of our professional legal team;
  • interesting, challenging and substantive legal work;
  • an insider’s view of practice areas you’re interested in, including observing or participating in depositions, negotiations, closings, and client contact and accountability;
  • the opportunity to manage a meaningful legal workload;
  • frequent and constructive performance reviews meant to develop your professional skills; and
  • opportunities to build relationships and to experience our great city with other summer associates and with our attorneys.

With our diverse client base, you’ll have the opportunity to work on teams handling major matters for both emerging entrepreneurial clients and large institutional clients. You’ll have the ability to progress as quickly as your talent allows.

We believe that the best way to understand our culture is to let you experience what we do and how we do it.
