Mintz Levin represents large public companies, government, non-profit organizations, schools, start-up biotech and high-tech companies, as well as small private companies. The firm's major clients include AOL, General Electric, Biogen, Fleet Bank, Thermo-Electron, The Hartford Insurance Company, Ekco, Turner Broadcasting, Qiagen, Staples, Compaq, and CVS.

A second contact remarked that "I really enjoyed the summer program but at times I worried about getting my work done with so many activities planned.
