Bulkley Richardson Welcomes Four Summer Associates

Bulkley Richardson has enhanced the firm’s summer associate program, and this year welcomed four law students to their program. Summer associates are introduced to the inner workings of a law firm, receive mentorship from lawyers ranging from firm leaders and retired judges all the way through the ranks to junior associates, and are exposed to real-life legal matters.

This year’s summer associates are:

Briana Dawkins is currently attending Western New England University School of Law and earned a B.A. from Curry College, summa cum laude, in 2018. She was an intern at the U.S. Department of Labor and the Connecticut Commission on Human Rights and Opportunities.

Sean Buxton is currently attending Western New England University School of Law. He is a 2019 graduate of Princeton University, cum laude, where he earned a B.A. Sean was an intern at the Hampden County District Attorney’s Office and for the Honorable Alberto Rivas, Superior Court of New Jersey.

Shriti Shah is currently attending the University of Connecticut School of Law. She received a Master’s of Management Studies in 2017 from K. J. Somaiya Institute of Management Studies and Research, and a Bachelor of Commerce in 2004 from S.I.E.S College of Arts, Science and Commerce, both affiliated with the University of Mumbai.

Jacob Kosakowski is currently attending Suffolk University School of Law. He is a 2018 graduate of the University of Massachusetts, Amherst, summa cum laude, and served as an intern for Chief Justice Paul Dawley and the Child Abuse Unit of the Northwestern District Attorney’s Office.

All of the summer associates anticipate a Spring 2022 graduation from law school.

Kevin Maynard, chair of the firm’s Hiring Committee, comments, “Having a robust summer program is a vital component of the firm’s growth. Our attorneys take pride in mentoring new lawyers and the summer associate program is where it all begins. By inviting bright, new talent to the firm, we have the opportunity to play a significant role in the start of their careers.”

Bulkley Richardson continues to accept resumes from future summer associates, as well as recent law school graduates and attorneys considering a lateral move. Please visit https://bulkley.com/careers/ for more information.
