Great to go back to London last week at the The Law Society to celebrate my admission as a solicitor and to consolidate the many years of hard work and perseverance that it has taken to get to this stage. Looking forward to the years ahead! ⚖️
"Reflecting on the journey of the moot court competition, I'm thrilled to share my certificate! Participating in this rigorous event was an invaluable experience, offering not only a platform to hone my legal skills but also fostering meaningful connections within the legal community. Gratitude abounds for the growth and camaraderie gained! #mootcourt#LegalExcellence#ProfessionalDevelopment ."
What a blessing it was this week to be a guest speaker at El Segundo High School College and Career Day! I had the opportunity to return to my high school and present to a new generation of aspiring lawyers on what it takes to become a licensed attorney and what the day-to-day life of a practicing attorney is really like.
With the help of my son and our firm’s legal assistant, Bryan Nicolai, I discussed with the students what it takes to become a lawyer in the first place, what we actually do once we are licensed and practicing and the many hats we wear as attorneys, how to own and run a successful law firm, and characteristics and attributes of a good attorney. We also had trivia time with fun questions about popular legal topics, where the students had the opportunity to test their general legal knowledge and win prizes.
The ultimate takeaway was:
1. Pursuing a career as a lawyer requires passion for the profession and a long-term commitment.
2. Being a lawyer is hard work, but it is also very rewarding!
3. Being a lawyer involves a daily grind, but is also very exciting!
On behalf of myself and Nicolai Law Firm, we can’t express enough how grateful we are to ESHS and the local Kiwanis chapter for this opportunity to give back.
