J. Leonard Teti '05
New York City

Douglas Bouton '10
Chicago
"I think the people are what make UVA Law so special, enjoyable and distinguishable from other law school experiences."
Adam Milasincic '11
Houston
"UVA Law’s network and reputation open doors. That fact helped me land my first position, and it is rare for a month to pass without meeting a new client, opposing counsel, judge, etc., with a UVA connection."
Lisa M. Friel '83

"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."
Kandice L. Horsey '03

"I formed relationships that have lasted since my arrival at law school, and have been truly meaningful. Through this, I have learned to network in a way that creates and maintains bonds without being (or seeming) opportunistic."
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."
Susan L. Fox '91
Washington, D.C.
"Don’t let inertia keep you in a job that isn’t leading you in the right direction. Be open to nontraditional jobs and work in government and policy fields to expand your horizons."
