Alumni of Berkeley Law at Sullivan & Cromwell include partners, special counsel and associates in both our domestic and international offices. Our six Berkeley Law partners at S&C epitomize the global reach of Berkeley grads at the firmā —Nicolas de Boynes, Diane McGimsey, Renata Hesse, Matt Hurd, Mehdi Ansari and Sarah Payne work in Paris, Los Angeles, Washington, D.C., New York and Palo Alto, respectively.
Berkeley Law alumni at S&C have clerked on the U.S. Supreme Court, and three have clerked at the federal appellate level. Many Berkeley Law alumni are actively involved in pro bono work at the Firm. In addition to becoming partners at S&C, our Berkeley Law alumni go on to pursue a range of prestigious opportunities. These include working as counsel for local government, international intergovernmental organizations and technology companies, in public interest positions (including the Vice President at Public Counsel, the largest pro bono law firm in the country), as partners at boutique law firms and in management roles at major financial institutions.
