The Firm Says
Gibbs & Bruns is a Chambers and Legal 500 top-ranked litigation boutique in Houston, TX, known for handling some of the nation’s most complex and high-stakes commercial disputes. Our summer program offers law students an authentic, hands-on experience of life at a premier trial firm. From the start, summer clerks are fully integrated into active cases, contributing to strategy discussions, drafting motions, and attending depositions, hearings, client meetings, and trials alongside our lawyers.
Because of our small size, clerks work directly with partners and associates, receiving mentorship, feedback, and opportunities to perform substantive work. Our program is designed to be both challenging and collaborative, offering insight into the firm’s dynamic culture and potential for a long-term fit. And of course, our program is also packed with fun!
At G&B, excellence and collegiality go hand in hand. We offer above-market compensation and a collaborative culture rarely matched by other law firms.
