paralegal students accomplish working hour requirements set by their programs.
The length of service varies based on the requirements of the schools and the
needs of the firm. Paralegal students should contact the firm when seeking this

Summer Associates
KTS does not have a formal summer associate program at this time. Please check
back from time to time as this status is subject to change.
Law Clerks
KTS employs law clerks in the Unlawful Detainer Department of our Los Angeles,
Newport Beach and Pleasanton offices. These positions are generally full- time
(with full-time benefits) but occasionally available on a long-term part-time
basis. These positions are ideal for part-time or evening law students who wish
to work for the duration of their law school career in order to gain a strong
foundation in landloard-tenant law prior to graduation. Such openings are
advertised at law schools local to the office with an opening as well as some
commercial posting sites.
New Associate Program - Business Real Estate Group (BREG)
In 2003 the KTS Business Real Estate Group implemented a BREG "New Associate
Program." The program offers new associates the opportunity to work closely
with a designated partner for one or several of the niche areas within the BREG
division.
Associates are part of a 12-month structured learning program* to provide a
mutual comprehensive learning cycle for them and for the firm. The 12-month
program enables the firm to assess the associates' technical legal skills,
business acumen, strengths, areas for growth, interest areas, and ability to
interact with clients on a daily basis. The year provides ongoing encouragement
and opportunity for associates to attend MCLE and industry-related functions to
both hone their knowledge base and interact with our clients in an industry
setting.
Upon successful completion of the introductory program, KTS' goal is to have an
ongoing employment relationship with the associates, with the expectation that
they will then peform work at a more senior level and interact with clients -
both existing and prospective - with greater independence.
*Despite the 12-month structure of the program, associates remain at-will
employees.
Experienced Attorneys
KTS has various needs during the year in all of our departments for experienced
attorneys. These openings appear on this website as well as in the alumni
journals, newsletters and other legal posting sites and press. Please check the
sources listed on our "posting sites" on a regular basis.
