“I came to Kasowitz as a sixth-year associate in order to develop my skills as a trial lawyer. In my first year at the firm, that's exactly what I did. I have been on three trial teams that have provided me the opportunity to examine witnesses on the stand, argue motions in limine and contribute to opening and closing statements. I have learned from each new experience and through the guidance I have received from more seasoned trial attorneys at the firm. It has been a lot of fun.”

"I thoroughly enjoy the firm and my interaction with its partners. Because many of the firm’s cases are leanly staffed, I find that I work with partners on a daily basis. The partners encourage me to assume a great deal of responsibility on every case and generally include me in decisions that relate to my cases. The firm’s partners make an obvious effort to guide me and help me grow as a lawyer." Lauren P. RubinLitigation Associate, Fordham 2007 |
"I have worked on a variety of interesting cases, ranging from complex commercial litigation to criminal and regulatory investigations. These matters have offered me ample opportunities to work directly with partners and to have significant client exposure. Kasowitz has allowed me to take on challenging opportunities and to develop my skills as a lawyer."

“As an associate in the bankruptcy and restructuring practice group, I have the opportunity to participate in a variety of restructuring cases spanning every industry and representing all constituencies including the debtor or its creditors representing every level of the capital structure.

"Kasowitz San Francisco's small criminal practice allows for tremendous partner-associate interaction. As an associate here, I've assisted in two back-to-back white collar criminal trials, a state murder appeal, and a complex white collar FBI investigation. Partners here actually take cases to trial - a tact that I understand is increasingly rare at other big firms."

"Being a junior associate doesn't simply dictate your responsibility and substance of work. If you earn the trust of the partners with whom you work, and show that you're able to handle the responsibility, then there's ample opportunity to gain a wealth of substantive experience."

"The breadth of my work at Kasowitz has been really astonishing. I've worked on cases dealing with securities, breach of fiduciary duty, breach of contract, real estate, antitrust, class actions, malpractice, products liability, patents, looted Nazi art, political asylum, and a pro bono contested divorce. When we say we are generalists, we mean it."

"From the day I arrived, I was treated with respect and immediately put to task on a complex commercial litigation case. My litigation team is made up of bright, dedicated, and motivated people, all of whom work together to achieve a positive result for our client, while maintaining a professional and friendly work environment. Within my first months working at Kasowitz, I had the opportunity to work closely with senior associates and partners who have given me invaluable direction and insight into our case and litigation in general. Due to my ongoing exposure, my professional development has progressed at a fast rate and in a personally rewarding way."
