Q: In what ways do you feel the out-of-office experiences benefitted you?
A: “The out-of-office experiences enabled me to genuinely get to know the clerks and attorneys. The experiences were also an interesting, engaging way to learn how far the legal field stretches, even into a zoo or a water treatment plant.”
Q: Which practice area lunch and learn did you find most intriguing and why?
A: “Though I enjoyed every practice area lunch and learn, I found the complex litigation and real estate lunches the most intriguing because in these lunches, I realized how sophisticated Fraser Stryker’s clients are and how much of an asset that is. Because so many of Fraser Stryker’s clients are experienced businesses or businesspeople, the Firm’s projects are significant, complex, and challenging.”
Q: What is your proudest achievement during your time at Fraser Stryker?
A: “This summer, I had many opportunities to practice and improve my legal writing as I wrote memorandums and drafted motions and briefs. I am proud of the ways my writing has developed, and I am proud of how much more quickly and comfortably I can write a legal document.”
