"My experience as a summer associate at Kinney & Lange was a great one.  The firm made an effort to create a positive environment for their summer associates.  The variety of projects I was given  helped me feel comfortable about learning intricacies of intellectual property law.  All the attorneys were quite willing to lend their expertise and experience.  Plus, playing on the firm softball team was a nice opportunity to get to know the people at Kinney & Lange while at the same time seeing how multitalented IP attorneys can be." - Austen Zuege

"Working at Kinney & Lange has been a great experience.  I was first introduced to the people and the firm as a summer associate.  From the outset I was given the opportunity to work with senior partners at the firm on projects that involved real clients with real problems and inventions.  In addition to the one-on-one interaction with partners and associates, weekly Kinney Academy sessions also guided the learning process.  Now, as an associate at the firm, I am still exposed to various levels of Intellectual Property work.  I also still would not hesitate to ask another attorney for assistance.  The atmosphere around the office is open and comfortable and is one that fosters personal and professional growth.  The people at the firm are all friendly and social events are planned a few times a month, from formal and informal happy hours to Twins game outings.  Overall, the firm appreciates the balance between working hard and having an enjoyable work environment, resulting in a high level of personal job satisfaction." - Ann Kulprathipanja

 "Participating in Kinney & Lange's summer clerkship program was a very rewarding experience for me.  Not only were the people friendly and welcoming, but I was quickly immersed in a wide array of intellectual property-related work.  One day might be spent working on a trademark application and the very next day on a research project for a patent infringement case.  In addition to learning through real world projects, the weekly sessions of Kinney Academy helped reinforce some of the concepts that were glossed over in law school.  Everyone's door was always open to answer questions, and I was even paired with a social mentor tasked with answering even my most mundane of questions.  The numerous social events spread throughout the summer offered ample opportunity to get to know people in a more relaxed setting." - Andrew DeMaster

"Without a doubt, Kinney & Lange is the best place I have ever worked.  Being a little older than the average first year associate, I have been able to work in a number of different environments, both before and during law school.  Once you get into law school, you hear the horror stories of what life is like at a law firm.  Kinney & Lange is that rare law firm that provides interesting and challenging work in a supportive and friendly environment.  Everyone at Kinney & Lange, not only the attorneys, is available and willing to help you out in any way that they can.  On my very first day, I was taken around and introduced to each and every person at the firm.  It's from that day on that you feel that you have become a welcomed edition to the Kinney & Lange family." - Shameek Ghose
