Kurt L. Davis Jr. '09
Houston
"Employers know UVA Law in Houston, in the U.S. and beyond the borders of the U.S. "
Ruthie Ma Swilling '03
Boston
"It was during my 4th year working for a Big Law firm in Boston that I decided to assess ‘Where is this ladder heading?’ and made the choice to switch to an in-house position."
Amy Lincoln '02
San Francisco
"To this day, when I say to other lawyers, ‘I loved law school’ they have one of two reactions: they either look at me like I’m crazy, or they say, ‘Oh, you must have gone to Virginia.’"
Todd C. Jacobs '89
Chicago
"Many cases we handle do not have straightforward answers, and new subject matters arise daily. It’s within these gray areas that I appreciate how UVA Law teaches students to think through complex questions."
Douglas Bouton '10
Chicago
"I think the people are what make UVA Law so special, enjoyable and distinguishable from other law school experiences."
Karen Owen Gibbs '92
Chicago
"As I've progressed in my career, the softer skills have been highly important. I credit UVA with preparing me to help my clients navigate opportunities and challenges from a 360-degree perspective."
Roscoe Jones '03
Washington, D.C.
"Washington is a town built on relationships. So keep in touch with the contacts you make there and find a mentor in the city- you never know when that one contact will open up a door for you to walk through."
Lisa M. Friel '83
New York City
"UVA Law is unique in fostering an environment of teamwork and trust, both of which are so important to be successful in today’s world."
Aditi Goel '12
Boston
"As a public defender, I am advocating for my clients in court almost every day — making bail arguments, requesting discovery, arguing motions, cross-examining witnesses, and having jury trials. There is no question in my mind that Virginia Law trained me for this job."
William M. Bosch '92
Washington, D.C.
"The Virginia lawyer graduates with an understanding that it is possible to be a gladiator without losing touch with humanity. In fact, it is essential to a long and successful career - especially as a trial lawyer and litigator."
