"At Thacher Proffitt, I have had an opportunity to work on a variety of matters ranging from securities and bankruptcy issues to insurance litigation involving the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks. I have grown in my legal analysis and writing, while learning to expect new legal challenges nearly everyday."
"Working at Thacher Proffitt this past summer has been tremendously rewarding. I have consistently worked on substantive assignments, have learned a huge amount about various practice areas of the law, and have been given the opportunity to work with amazing attorneys and fellow summer associates. All in all, I couldn't have asked for a more positive experience."
"I could not have been more pleased with my summer experience at Thacher Proffitt. The work environment is incredibly challenging, yet there is a very relaxed and friendly atmosphere among the entire staff. Remarkably, everyone, from summer associates to the most senior partners, comes to work with a smile each and every day. Looking back, I have grown immensely, both personally and professionally, all thanks to my time at Thacher Proffitt. There is simply no better place to begin a legal career."
"The Thacher Proffitt summer program encompasses what any law student would want: days spent immersed in the substantive work of a first-year associate, as well as after-hours opportunities to socialize in the company of great people in a vibrant city."
"Thacher Proffitt attorneys are eager to include Summer Associates in the substantive aspects of their work: research, conference calls, client meetings and—just as important—collegiality and teamwork."
"Thacher Proffitt: A tradition of innovative minds developing relationships for present and future success."
"As an older student starting a second career, I deeply appreciate the attitude of the lawyers with whom I’ve worked this past summer. They are fun...helpful...and professional. From the most junior associate to the most senior partner, Thacher Proffitt attorneys make me feel confident, comfortable and welcomed, whether I’m working on the documents for a $100 million deal or sharing a beer after work."
"In the past 14 months at Thacher Proffitt, I have developed a considerable understanding of both the Structured Finance industry and the structures of the deals I work on. As a second year associate, I deal daily with clients and outside counsel, participate in conference calls and discussions relating to the deals I am assigned to, and draft offering and operative documents for both public and private transactions. What I like most about working at Thacher Proffitt is the fact that junior associates are given substantial responsibility on transactions, but always have the reassurance of knowing they are able to consult with both senior associates and partners, who are extremely approachable, regarding any questions that arise. I am constantly challenged by my assignments and genuinely enjoy both the work and responsibility I have been given, as well as the collegial environment of my department."
"Thacher Proffitt combines a world-class legal environment with a corporate culture built around long-lasting friendships."
"When I came to Thacher Proffitt in the litigation practice six years ago, I had—and continue to have—the feeling that I was part of the family...a large, wonderfully diverse family."
"The people are great and I have received a realistic and enjoyable summer experience."
"We have had great continuity in our ranks and we understand that collegiality and professionalism go hand-in-hand to create an environment in which we can enjoy being lawyers while serving our clients with the highest quality of work."
"Our Firm’s preeminence in Structured Finance offers a unique opportunity to work on ground-breaking transactions usually found in larger firms, yet we maintain the ambiance and quality of life associated with smaller firms."
"The Firm is largely home-grown. Many of our partners joined us as summer associates and never left."
