Sher Edling LLP is seeking law students to join our mission-driven team dedicated to protecting people and the planet for 2023 summer associate positions. Candidates must be 2Ls or 3Ls during the 2022-2023 academic year.
Sher Edling is at the forefront of litigation to hold polluters accountable for damages inflicted on communities, including cases across the country involving climate deception and drinking water contamination. Summer associates work on those high-impact environmental cases representing states, counties, cities, and non-profits. They are integrated into the day-to-day work of the firm and contribute to cases across all phases of litigation, including investigation, motion practice, discovery, trial preparation, and appeal. The assignments typically involve in-depth research and writing and creative problem-solving. Where appropriate, summer associates are involved in court appearances, depositions, and firm and client meetings, and are also invited to join the firm’s various social activities.
The firm chooses summer associates based on research and writing ability, academic record, and commitment to the work of the firm. Sher Edling is an equal opportunity employer highly committed to diversity among our lawyers and staff, and to fostering a collaborative and supportive workplace. We enthusiastically invite students of color to apply.
