The Barakat + Bossa Incubator Program is not your typical summer associate experience—it’s a launchpad for the next generation of courtroom advocates. Designed to accelerate the development of elite trial talent, the program offers high-performing law students a rare, immersive opportunity to gain real litigation experience often out of reach at large law firms.
Selected candidates enter a structured, apprentice-style training model that combines rigorous doctrinal learning with hands-on practice. Under the close mentorship of seasoned litigators, associates engage in every critical phase of trial preparation and execution—including case development, depositions, mediations, evidentiary hearings, and both direct and cross-examinations.
From day one, our Incubator is crafted to prepare you for the courtroom. Since the program’s inception, every participant offered a full-time associate role has tried—and won—a case within their first year of practice. Alongside competitive compensation, associates gain exposure to the full spectrum of trial advocacy in a fast-paced, high-stakes environment.
We invite passionate, driven law students to explore this unique opportunity and begin building the skills, judgment, and confidence that define successful trial lawyers.
