* Assist with regulatory submissions and discovery document review



* Provide support during mergers & acquisitions - assisting with due diligence, disclosure and other schedules, researching issues, review of agreements



* Attend business and client meetings and collaborate with supervising legal and compliance professionals on ideas, concepts and issues



* Draft and revise contractual agreements (e.g., confidential disclosure, supply, vendor, license)



* Partner with other interns, legal and compliance professionals, business colleagues, and other capabilities on projects, presentations, and other learning experiences.
