“The summer internship has been a good opportunity to see how the law works in the real world and to study topics which you would otherwise possibly not have dealt with. Likewise, it has been an infinite learning-experience, not just academically, but also personally, having professionals with that many capacities showing you new things on a day-to-day basis, trusting your working skills and giving you tips about the best way to do things, is priceless. Furthermore, the work environment and the human quality of all the Brigard Urrutia members have been great. Without doubt, a few months of growth.”

“My experience at Brigard Urrutia has changed the way I deal with tasks or responsibilities. This became possible thanks to the leadership and help that the programme has offered by, for example, allowing to apply the academic knowledge in the real exercising of the law. Furthermore, I have learned that the result of my work always has to be guided by the highest standards of excellence and dedication, with the aim of providing the best-possible service and above all, to exceed the limits of my academic, work-related and personal capacities. Having been a summer intern, I have no doubt regarding the quality of work and the institutional solidity of this firm, which I am sincerely grateful to, for having opened the doors to this enriching and satisfying opportunity.”

“I have to express with enormous gratefulness the magnificent nature of what it has meant to have been welcomed with such positive energy. Opportunities like this strengthen valuably the process of formation of those who are close to becoming lawyers, opening the doors to true challenges of professional life for us. Being part of the selected group of summer interns, particularly as an intern at Brigard Castro, has been a unique experience which has shown me valuable things, has opened great friendships and a great professional growth. I have to say that all of my expectations have been fully reached and that the human- and professional qualities here are very important and exceptional. For all of this, I have felt and I will continue to feel part of this firm. Once again, thanks a lot, BU/BC!”

“My experience during the internship cannot be described in another way than to call it a learning experience and the compliance with objectives. When I just got to Brigard Urrutia I have imagined that I would only do administrative work without any real challenge. However, when I actually started to work, I have noticed that the project I have been assigned were of a big importance for the development of the firm. In this regard, I have acquired a lot of practical knowledge and experience in the realisation of the projects – situations which, without doubt, have served me in finding my profile as a lawyer. For all these reasons I am very thankful for the opportunity provided, as it has allowed me to understand that working in a firm is what I want to have as part of my life.”
