Our 2011 summer program will begin on May 23, 2011 and run through July 22, 2011 in all of our offices.  Most summer associates will start work May 23th depending upon exam schedules, moving, etc.

You can check our Fall Recruiting Calendar to see if we plan to interview at your law school.  If we are, please check with your Career Services Office to see how and when you should apply to be considered for an interview.  If we will not be interviewing at your law school, please submit your materials to the appropriate Recruiting Manager in each office.  If you are a first year law student, please apply after December 1.  If you are a second year law student, please apply after August 1.  If you are a third year law student, please apply after November 15.

Our split policy is determined on an office by office basis.  The Washington, Los Angeles and Denver offices do not allow splits.  The Atlanta office is open to second year students splitting their summer; however, they require that you spend the first half (i.e. a minimum of six weeks) with MLA, unless you previously spent your first year summer with us.  We feel that critical group building and orientation activities, as well as most of the training and social events, occur during the first six of eight weeks of the summer.

This is determined on a case by case basis.  Interested students must individually interview with each MLA office.
