Seyfarth Shaw, which laid off 50 people in May, has announced it will not host a Summer associate program in 2010.
The firm stressed that the cancellation is a one-time decision, and is not permanent. It will also continue to hire from law schools.
Last year’s Summers will start in either January or October 2010, and this year’s Summers who get offers will begin in January 2011.
Chicago’s Seyfarth Shaw LLP is a full-service law firm founded in 1945. It has ten offices.
