I expect law school to help me discover the specific legal field that most interests me and the field in which I will practice upon graduation. Right now, I’m interested in many different disciplines. Among them are civil rights, securities fraud, juvenile rights, family law and immigrant rights. I expect law school to allow me to experience these subjects rather than just teach me about them. In addition to focusing my direction, I hope to learn how to be an effective practitioner and advocate. I want to be an attorney who can serve my clients while contributing to and advancing the profession.
