Summer Associate Testimonials

Paxton Deuel (Willamette University '23)

2022 Summer Associate

"The attorneys and staff at Sussman Shank immediately made me feel a part of the team. From day one, I was treated like any other associate. I drafted business and litigation documents, researched legal issues, participated in client meetings, observed depositions, attended court hearings, watched a mock jury trial, and even played on the firm's softball team. Furthermore, the partners met with me daily, and I could tell they genuinely cared about my growth as a law student and future lawyer. Overall, I had a phenomenally positive experience as a summer associate at Sussman Shank, and I would recommend it to anyone else looking for an engaging, supportive, and informative hands-on experience with the practice of law."
