In February we received a phone call from a client’s niece, named Mireya. She is a senior in high school, and was looking to intern at our office as part of her senior project. She told us that she had already been turned down by one other law firm.

Of course, we said we’d be happy to have her work with us and scheduled her to come in immediately. Mireya was a pleasure to have in the office and we look forward to working with more interns in the future!

On March 16, 2015, Stuart Carpey was invited back for a second time as a guest lecturer at the University of Pittsburgh. The course was in Organizational Communication, taught by Dr. Lloyd Corder of the Department of Communication in the Dietrich School of Arts and Sciences. Stuart spoke to the students, most of whom are graduating seniors on a variety of subjects. The students posed questions to Stuart like what an employer might expect in the new hire’s first job, how to do well in the interviewing process, how to make your resume stand out, and what makes a really good employee. Stuart also discussed what it was like to run a small business. The students were very interested in Stuart’s insights and he looks forward to presenting to Dr. Corder’s students next semester.
