San Diego County, California, United States

Assisted clients with eviction defense. After conducting our initial meetings with clients, I fought to obtain the best outcome for my client. This often entailed propounding discovery, corresponding with third parties to obtain evidence, drafting reasonable accommodation requests and proposed stipulations, and sometimes preparing for trial. Trial preparations included creating extensive exhibits, drafting legal arguments, and preparing witnesses for trial testimony. I have successfully completed a trial and obtained a favorable judgment for my client. I have also drafted and filed a Motion to Compel Discovery.

During my three months in the Sexual Assault Unit, I have had the opportunity to draft motions, assist with trial prep, conduct research on various topics, review and analyze interview footage, and observe multiple trials. During one trial, I actively assisted the prosecutor with jury selection, witness questioning, and closing arguments. I have been able to build my writing skills immensely through the memos, briefs, motions, and letters I have drafted. Trial prep gave me the chance to review discovery and create trial binders with a detailed table of contents for Bates Stamped documents, witness lists, and potential exhibits to be entered into evidence. It also gave me the chance to analyze an appellate case and conduct thorough research on the issue on appeal.
