Law Students

Invaluable Experience Starts Here.

There’s no substitute for hands-on experience - especially in a firm as complex and diverse as Breazeale, Sachse & Wilson. Every year, we recruit standout first- and second-year law students to join our Summer Associates Program, and we interview seniors interested in becoming full-time associates with the firm upon graduation. Join us and see for yourself why the BSW experience is as intense and rewarding as you're likely to find.

Summer Associates Program

Offered to first and second year law students, our Summer Program is comprised of two six-week sessions. Because many of the Firm’s new associates are graduates of our Summer Program, these programs are designed to introduce summer clerks to the various aspects of the practice of law. Students participate in case law analysis and technical writing tasks, as well as in strategy sessions, depositions and hearings. Each student is assigned two attorneys to act as mentors to provide guidance, assistance and feedback throughout their summer session. Under the close supervision of partners and senior associates, summer clerks receive a well-balanced workload, which is intended to reflect what they will experience as first year associates in the firm. Clerks are also invited to attend various social events and luncheons allowing them to become acquainted with attorneys in the firm.
