In a few months, Chelsy Davy, the on-again-off-again girlfriend of Prince Harry, will be starting as a trainee solicitor in the London office of Allen & Overy. The blonde beauty’s arrival at A&O will set tongues wagging, no doubt.
Meanwhile, here in the States, summer associates are arriving at their law firms — and surely some of them, like Chelsy Davy, are boldface names. We’d like to know about them, of course.
To get the ball rolling, let’s take a look back at some of the more famous summer associates of recent years….
Here are three celebrity summer associates who have worked at leading law firms lately:
- Last year, a gorgeous ex-contestant on America’s Next Top Model summered in D.C..
- Also in 2010, a famous (or infamous?) author summered in New York.
- Back in 2007, acclaimed author Elizabeth Wurtzel was a summer associate at WilmerHale. She received an offer from WH, but decided instead to go to Boies Schiller, where she now works.
