Stroock’s Summer Program, our primary source for new associate recruitment, offers 1L and 2L students a rigorous 10-week introduction to the types of matters our attorneys routinely handle across a variety of practice areas.

Held in our New York and Los Angeles offices, each class is limited in size so that summer associates may fully engage with each other while working on substantive, real-world assignments alongside our attorneys.

Our Summer Program is designed to maximize your opportunity to work in a variety of practice areas that are of interest to you, rather than having you complete a formal rotation of all practices or assigning you to a particular area. We encourage you to explore a variety of different practices – even some that you may not have previously considered – so that you enjoy a comprehensive summer experience with us.

We invite you to learn more about our Summer Program on the following pages.

While we typically fill the majority of our entry-level associate needs through our Summer Program, we occasionally interview 3L candidates to supplement the following year’s incoming class. Third-year law students may submit their application materials as outlined on the How to Apply page.
