Summer Associate - 1L (Birmingham, AL)

Butler Snow is accepting applications for the 2027 Summer Associate Program.

Butler Snow's Birmingham Summer Associate Program is a six week program occurring in the first-half of summer (mid-May through the end of June).

Butler Snow's primary means in which it hires new law graduates is through the summer program. During the program, law students will have the opportunity to work on a variety of assignments in each of our firm's practice areas and work with different attorneys across all offices. Our Summer Associates work on real matters with real clients, receiving the same type of assignments that our first-year associates work on. We encourage our Summer Associates to explore as many practice areas as possible by taking a variety of assignments and working with attorneys across different practice groups. This process helps our Summer Associates learn which practice is (and is not) a good fit. Our Summer Associates not only get a variety of assignments, but also hands-on experiences, such as attending depositions, hearings, client negotiations, and working on pro bono matters.

Butler Snow is a full-service law firm with a network of attorneys, advisors and staff collaborating across a network of more than 25 offices in the United States and Europe. The firm’s award-winning culture of teamwork and clients first means we call on resources from across the firm to match experience with the needs of our clients. As a result, clients benefit from our strategic counsel, efficient execution and innovative solutions to complex challenges.

Please upload a cover letter, updated resume, and current transcript.
