London
Our London program, which we have successfully run since the summer of 2012, is designed to provide our summer law clerks with a realistic view of what it will be like to live and work in London. Due to the nature of our practice, our summer program is based exclusively on US securities work and is limited in size. We are dedicated to providing our clerks an in-depth and interactive view of our practice and an opportunity for the future.

As a leader in our field, we are rightly held to high standards in all we do. We believe that our licence to operate, the sustainability of our business and the achievement of our vision are dependent on our ability to inspire trust and earn the confidence of all our stakeholders.
To do this, we must act responsibly, creating long-term, sustainable value and supporting their future success. We use our commitment to the UN Global Compact, and associated global frameworks, to help shape our approach.
The concepts that are integral to Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) are embedded in our Responsible Business strategy. For instance, we align our operations to contribute towards a number of the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), focusing on those areas where we can make the greatest contribution, and we intend to continue to do so through to 2030.
