Photos from the 2016 Summer Intro to Careers in Law Program

This summer marked the fourth year our firm has hosted local high school students for a one week program offering an introduction to careers in law. Once again, a great group of high achieving students came together to learn about topics ranging from civil procedure to criminal law.
