"Since joining McKool Smith as a new associate, I have had the opportunity to participate in a variety of matters; I was able to hit the ground running with real-world experience. Within days, I joined the litigation team for a multibillion-dollar case; within weeks I was preparing for and attending multiple depositions. 

The issues I have worked on range from negligent misrepresentation to foreign sovereign immunity to filing Chapter 11 bankruptcy petitions on behalf of corporate debtors. The work at McKool Smith is both challenging and rewarding. It is one of the reasons I was drawn to the firm during my job search—at McKool Smith you are not just another associate, you are an integral member of a powerful litigation team."
