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.’"
Terrica Redfield Ganzy '02
Atlanta
"I could go on and on about the professors who encouraged me, the students who supported me, the environment that allowed me to find my path and take it. In sum, however, I found my passion at UVA Law, and I haven’t turned back since."
Douglas Bouton '10
Chicago
"I think the people are what make UVA Law so special, enjoyable and distinguishable from other law school experiences."
Ruthie Ma Swilling '03

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."
Steven R. Okun '91
Singapore
"While being bilingual can be a prerequisite for getting a job in certain markets, such as China, being multicultural is a prerequisite in every market."
J. Leonard Teti '05
New York City
"Be ready to see lots of things you haven't seen before in law school, and bring with you a sense of curiosity and willingness to learn what you don't know."
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."
Kurt L. Davis Jr. '09
Houston
"Employers know UVA Law in Houston, in the U.S. and beyond the borders of the U.S. "
