STUDENT TESTIMONIALS

Without a doubt, my participation in international moot court has been one of the most rewarding experiences of my law school career...this summer during my summer associate position, I was one of the only people at the firm who had extensively studied the International Bar Association Rules on the Taking of Evidence in International Arbitration. As a result, I got to the opportunity to work on one of the only international cases we had in the office. Indeed, this introduction to international commercial arbitration could very well define the rest of my legal career. Read More of Blanca's Testimonial.
