Sample cover letter for Internship position at Weiler

I am fascinated by the Weil, Gotshal &Manges’s creativity in tackling intellectually challenging cases for example advising the Lehman Brothers on their various law suits which demonstrates Weil as a recognised source of excellence for both contentious and non-contentious advice. As a firm that is known globally for providing a top quality legal service that offers a practical and commercial solution to it client’s needs I would relish the opportunity to demonstrate my own abilities in this department.

Likewise, due to the firm’s small team environment the responsibility would be high at such an early stage in my career which I would look forward to, as it would allow me to play a vital role. The opportunity to work with like-minded people to produce a top quality service appeals to me as I consider myself a team player and thrive in supportive environments.  If given the opportunity I would to contribute to the collaborative way of working at Weil.

The prospect of working on high level ground breaking deals such as the Facebook acquisition of Whatsapp (£19bn price tag) in which Weil played an advising role is one that excites me greatly. It reaffirms my passion for the corporate law practice area and my aspiration to work in Weil, Gotshal & Manges due to its top rankings for its M&A services.
