Meet Hector!
This summer I have had a great experience as a clerk for Puig Monsen & Associates despite working entirely remotely. Puig is a boutique law firm in Washington, DC that practices in a variety of areas and I was able to gain valuable experience in probate, real estate contracts, international business, and civil litigation. Although not related to my law school career, I was presented the opportunity to be filmed for a commercial for an app that will be released later this summer!

Meet Aimee!
My summer experience with EPGD Business Law, while nearly entirely remote was extraordinary and rewarding. EPGD seamlessly pivoted to remote summer clerkship positions in the wake of COVID-19 and invested in its law clerks’ experience through interactive zoom meetings, phone calls and staying connected online. EPGD handles a variety of matters and I had the opportunity to learn more about a wide array of business law, trust and estate matters, small claims litigation, and what life in a firm on a team is like. I am so thankful to Eric, Oscar and the whole team at EPGD for an amazing, fruitful, and rewarding summer!

Congratulations to our LALSA member, .rose.d on her engagement! Felicidades y les deseamos lo mejor!

Some more pictures from this past Wednesday, with the 8th grade students of San Miguel Middle School!

LALSA had an amazing time paneling to the eighth grade students of San Miguel Middle School on why we chose to be attorneys and our post-graduate career plans. Thank you to Fr. O’Brien for organizing this event, we hope the students had a fantastic time touring the school and engaging with faculty & law students. These are the lawyers of the future!
