So…we
haven’t been very good at updating the blog on a regular basis. Oops! We’ve
just been too busy. Here’s some updates
on what we’re up to:
Amanda has
won a VEC case, assisted on some crazy cases, and continues to baffle us with
her ability to keep her desk organized (or maybe just baffles me). She presented some seriously awesome oral
arguments at the VEC for the Special Examiner and remains a fearsome advocate
for the clients.
Cayman has joined us. He has a seemingly endless caseload. Cayman has been constantly running out to court, VEC hearings, and client meetings. Doris is overjoyed to finally have a 3L with a practice certificate here, and Cayman’s docket shows it.
Craig has
won a real case! Well Doris argued it, but it was Craig’s work. He’s working on a lot of commercial cases and
he’s even completed all the paperwork for a divorce. Basically, Craig’s a baller.
Jacobie is
the master of the power of attorney. His
sociable nature continues to bring clients back asking specifically to speak
with him. He’s also filed some
interesting motions, answers, and wrote an interrogatory!
I (Kat) have
been working hard on divorces, custody, and a particular property case that is
quite the head-scratcher. Like Amanda
and Cayman, I have also worked on a VEC claim (outcome still to come).
We CANNOT
believe how close we are to the end of our terms as summer interns at
CVLAS. In such a short term, we have
learned so much! We’ve been working
directly with clients and actually drafting legal documents, so much better
than just doing research (although there’s been a lot of that too). The summer has moved at breakneck speed, and
it’s not slowing down. Back to work!
