“The summer internship is an excellent experience for entering the world of work. The work is challenging and enriching, and the things you learn are countless. The characteristic perfection of Brigard Urrutia has made me give the best in any moment of this experience. Thanks a lot.”

“In my opinion the summer internship has been a great experience at both, a personal and a professional level. This is as I have not only got an insight into many practice areas which I did not know before, but also into what constitutes the career. Being a great work opportunity, as one was able to rotate between the different practice areas, work with various lawyers and deal with different aspects of the law which we have usually not seen at university. At the same time, I have learned to be challenged every day and I have understood what it means to work in a firm like Brigard Urrutia and finally, to solve real problems which arise in Colombia. Luckily, with Brigard Urrutia I have found a firm which, besides all the prestige, has an undisputable human quality, where everyone is ready to help you and make you feel part of the firm. I therefore think that this is a great opportunity and an experience which everyone should try to expand one’s capacity and learn more about one’s preferences and limits. Without doubt, I would recommend this internship, as it has been one of the most satisfying experiences I have had in my life and which has given me a full understanding of what the practice of law really is.”

“The summer internship is a unique opportunity which I would recommend to every law student who wants to excel as a lawyer and as a person. I enjoyed this opportunity a lot, as it has allowed me to get to know the professionalism and human quality of this big team alike. I admire them, I have many memories of them left, and I have made friends for life, as well as having the wish to come back.”

“The Brigard Urrutia summer internship is more than just a little training to become a lawyer, but also to become a professional of the highest quality. Over the course of these seven weeks I have had the opportunity to work at a high level of demands alongside excellent professionals who always cared for what I said and who taught me the maximum and I am very grateful for that. The respect and friendly work environment at Brigard Urrutia will always stay with me for the rest of my professional life.”

Arturo Umaña Pizano

“The Brigard Urrutia summer internship goes beyond any other work-experience which one might have. During the time I have spent here, I have discovered areas of the law which I have not known before and the amazing people who have helped me in my formation as a lawyer. It is a friendly environment which makes you excel professionally, while at the same time it shows you how to progress and face problems which can come up. I would like to thank everyone whom I have gotten to know and who have helped me in this part of my life, as I have shared a lot of time and many experiences with them. I have no doubt in recommending this programme and in returning here to work in the future.”

“Brigard Urrutia has been an indescribable experience. It has taught me to pay attention to everything that I can achieve with discipline, dedication and love for what I do. Professionally, I do not think that there can be a better entry into the world of work, while personally this experience has made me stronger, more confident and independent, so that in both of these parts of my life, the things I have learned are countless. Thanks to everyone who has made this a great experience with their warm attitude and patience. Thanks to my internship-friends for every moment we have shared together. Thanks BU.”
