What Was The Best Biglaw Summer Associate Event Of 2017?

Some Biglaw firms kept it real, but others kept it real boring...

After a relatively uneventful summer (in terms of law firm scandals, that is), summer associates have returned to their law schools, offers in hand, with only fond memories — not to mention full bank accounts — to remember their time with their firms. But which Biglaw firm provided summer associates with the most memorable experiences?

Let’s hear from you, our readers, to get the inside scoop. It’s time for Above the Law’s annual summer associate event contest.

Last year, Quinn Emanuel trounced the competition for the second year in a row by taking summer associates on an all-expenses-paid trip to Iceland. Even though Quinn’s summer program was smaller thanks to its scaled-back program, the firm still managed to blow the competition out of the water. Maybe this year, a challenger will be able to pry the honor of having the best summer associate event from the firm’s hands. Does your firm have what it takes?
