Careers

Life at B&I
As a small boutique firm, we take pride in our collaborative environment, one that fosters deep relationships with each other and our clients built on trust, integrity, and a commitment to service.
Because of our size, all of our lawyers enjoy substantial client interaction, work closely with colleagues on small teams, and have frequent opportunities to take on leadership roles. To foster collaboration and the development of highly creative and strategic solutions for our clients, we offer flexible work arrangements and an “open door” policy.
Life in Maine
Maine is one of the most pristine environments in the United States and Portland is regularly voted one of the country’s “most livable cities”.
Set against this backdrop, Brann & Isaacson offers its lawyers challenging work, sterling clients, and a small firm setting. In other words, we offer the best of both worlds—a sophisticated national practice within the confines of an intimate and familiar working environment.

Because of Maine’s size and our reputation, B&I lawyers can, and do, become involved in government and charitable organizations at both a local and state level. Outside the office, our lawyers find time to be jazz musicians, blacksmiths, screenwriters, college and law school professors, and community leaders. And, of course, our lawyers take advantage of Maine’s quality of life and natural beauty, which make it the perfect setting to build a professional and personal career.
Open Positions
Summer Associate Program
We offer a Summer Associate Program designed to immerse two or three highly qualified, first or second year law students in the breadth and scope of the firm’s practice. Summer associates work directly with partners and associates on varying legal issues for the firm’s national client base.
We make our summer program both a learning and hands-on working experience. While legal research and writing are critical components, summer associates also participate in client meetings and strategy conferences, and attend hearings, trials, and depositions.
By the time the program ends, our summer associates know what it means to be a lawyer at Brann & Isaacson. Although the focus is on work, we also host a variety of social activities, such as dinners, local theater outings, baseball games, firm functions, and informal gatherings.

Maine Diversity Summer Associate Program
At B&I, we recognize and appreciate the importance of creating a work environment that accepts and draws from a range of backgrounds and perspectives to ensure that our clients, attorneys, and employees all benefit from our best work informed by diverse viewpoints. As a participating member of the Maine Diversity Summer Associate Program, we offer one successful applicant from the program to join us each year as a summer associate.
