Schwartz Perry & Heller LLP AUGUST 10, 2007 - Schwartz Perry & Heller'S 2007 SUMMER LEGAL INTERNSHIP PROGRAM CONCLUDES WITH RESOUNDING SUCCESS

Schwartz Perry & Heller'S 2007 SUMMER LEGAL INTERNSHIP PROGRAM CONCLUDES WITH RESOUNDING SUCCESS

AUGUST 10, 2007

During the Summer of 2007, Schwartz Perry & Heller LLP invited 19 accomplished second- and third-year law students from several New York-area law schools to participate in its highly recognized legal internship program, which has successfully existed for more than 10 years (Brooklyn Law School, City University of New York School of Law, Fordham University School of Law, Hofstra University School of Law, New York Law School and St. John's University School of Law). The first session commenced on May 21, 2007, which continued through June 29, 2007. The second session commenced on July 2, 2007 and concluded on August 10, 2007.

During the course of their internship, the first session law students had tremendous exposure to a major arbitration proceeding. Arrangements were made to have each intern attend proceedings and each was given an opportunity to participate in the research with respect to the concluding post-arbitration material.

All of the Sumer 2007 legal interns were given exposure to drafting complaints, performing legal research on a variety of substantive and procedural law issues, ongoing involvement in all aspects of employment litigation, motion practice, client intake meetings, third-party conducted mediations, negotiation preparations and other facets of our very active employment law litigation practice.

Lasting friendships were created, knowledge and experiences were shared and the entire class of interns expressed their appreciation for the experiences in which they participated and the hands-on contact they obtained working in an active employment law practice. We at Schwartz Perry & Heller LLP benefitted from the experience as well, as we always do.

    "Davida Perry not only did an amazing job calming down my nerves but she fought for me tooth and nail and did a great job securing what my past employer owed me."
    After having a terrible experience at my last job, facing the anxiety again of having to rehash the treatment was daunting. Davida Perry not only did an amazing job calming down my nerves but she fought for me tooth and nail and did a great job securing what my past employer owed me. I won’t lie, there were moments I wanted to give up, but Davida was always there to help me stay focused and realize that I didn’t need to let them win. She was really great at countering all of their arguments, I pity anyone that would try to prove her wrong. She thought of everything we need and kept me constantly updated. Mostly what I appreciated about Davida was her kindness, and her genuine care for my mental health. She wanted to make sure I was taking care of myself during a very trying time. I cannot recommend this firm enough. They all clearly care about their clients and want to do best for you. Don’t be afraid to stand up for yourself, and if you’re worried about the challenges that lie ahead be sure to team with Schwartz Perry & Heller, they will have your back and fight for justice.

    "He was nothing but professional and incredibly responsive. I can't recommend him enough."
    Brian was extremely helpful and responsive it helping me review my first ever separation agreement. He was able to explain the legalese in a way that allowed me to understand the risks I could be taking on down the road. After speaking to him, I was able to negotiate to include additional language in my agreement that will protect my future career. He was nothing but professional and incredibly responsive. I can't recommend him enough.
