Tuesday was our first day back from the long weekend as well as the first day of a summer-long war: the Real Estate Mock Transaction. When I first heard about the mock transaction, I was excited because I am interested in Real Estate and the Real Estate Practice Group at Bilzin Sumberg is so prominent
Real Estate Mock Transaction
Hitting the Halfway Point
Following some of the great times we have had getting to know one another at social events like the Poker Tournament, we have also been gaining valuable work experience in all of Bilzin Sumberg’s different practice areas. This week, we focused on Real Estate Transactions, as the Summer Associates participated in the…
“Let the Summer Games Begin”
Last week we began the Real Estate Mock Transaction training program. We met with our coaches and were divided into two teams: Seller’s Team, which includes Camille, Jennifer, and I; and, Buyer’s Team, which includes Jessica and Brendan. After being split up into teams and reading the Hunger Games themed fact scenario, Adam Lustig announced,…
Summer Days, Drifting Away
On the first day of summer, we sat in the Bilzin Sumberg boardroom with Marshall Pasternack and Jessica Buchsbaum. Marshall was telling us that the summer program would fly by before we knew it. Well, here we sit nine weeks later and his words have proved prophetic.

The Home Stretch
As per usual, last week was filled with events. The summer associates were invited to dinner with the Insolvency Department at Cibo Wine Bar on Miracle Mile. It was a great ending to a very solid run of practice group events. Throughout the summer we had many different types of these events including a Marlins…
Motion to Strike!
Thursday was a day of highs and lows. Our softball season ended at the hands of the D.A.s office (I think they practice – a lot!) in the playoffs. But after our loss, the Miami Heat played a spectacular game seven to win the championship! The city went crazy; as I write this I can see the championship parade from outside my window. I credit the team’s win to the good luck generated by Bilzin Sumberg’s spirit day on Thursday. Everyone dressed up in Heat attire for the day. You’re welcome Miami!
