Ready for the End?

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!
