MOTIVATION LETTER
Respected Sir/Madame,
Subject: “Application Letter for Internship”
I am a student of MCGILL University completing my bachelor’s degree. I am in my
sophomore year. I have political science and economics as my majors. After the completion of
my course I am planning to apply to the most prestigious law schools in the United States of
America with Finance and corporate law as my major subjects. An internship in Baker
McKenzie law firm would be a stepping stone of my success in future. I have come to know of
your firm from the public service database of MCGIL university and from the other students who
have done internships at other branches of Backer Mackenzie law firm which are located in
different cities. I have learned that the reputation of Bake McKenzie precedes its name. From the
public service database I have learned that the BakerMcKenzie is the second largest
multinational law firm in the world which employs 13,000 employees including 4700 lawyers
and 6076 fee earners. It is also the second biggest law firm in terms of revenue with US$2.67
billion.
I have come to know that Baker McKenzie has wide range of expertise over matters
ranging from Dispute Resolution to International property, Dispute Resolution, employment
compensation, Consumer Goods and retail and more. Baker McKenzie had been in the news on
several occasions due to the notable cases won by the firm. I have learned by conducting an
extensive research that the firm won the landmark case against the U.S. Internal Revenue
Service for Symantec Corporation in December 2009. Baker McKenzie in the year 2012 helped
overturn the decision of conviction of Paul Chambers according to the provisions of
Communications Act 2003. Baker McKenzie is currently representing the company Facebook
