Where did you work as a PILS Fellow?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I worked at the Legal Aid Society of Milwaukee this past summer.<\/p>\n

What kind of work did you do there?<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Legal Aid Society of Milwaukee helps low income individuals with a variety of civil legal matters. I was able to help attorneys and clients with various landlord\/tenant disputes. I was also able to see firsthand how Wisconsin law has changed regarding the protections afforded to tenants. I also worked a great deal with the Milwaukee Jail ensuring the inmates were being housed in suitable conditions. For me, to generalize all that I was able experience this past summer:\u00a0 my experience was like seeing in real life the cases I had read about during my 1L year.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

How was the experience meaningful to you?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Not only was I able to apply the lessons I had been learning over the course of law school, I was able to help clients and learn more about who I am as a future attorney. I learned that I have the ability to make a significant difference in the lives of my future clients. There was nothing more meaningful than seeing the work I did have a real impact and change a person\u2019s circumstances. This experience solidified that public interest law is what I want to pursue as a future Marquette lawyer.<\/p>\n

What did you learn in the course of your work?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Not only did I learn how to apply Wisconsin law in real cases where I had the ability to impact the outcome, I learned how to interact with clients as a legal intern with knowledge of the law. Through communicating with clients and attorneys I learned how to apply what I had learned in class to help a client in need. This experience taught me to speak up and have confidence in my abilities. The attorneys I worked with knew what I was capable of before even I did, and they helped me learn how to come out of my shell and truly advocate for a client. Through this experience I learned what it means to be a future public interest lawyer.<\/p>\n

What do you like best about doing public interest law work?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Public interest law is the reason I decided to attend law school. In public interest work, every day is a new problem to solve, and for me, that is exciting and challenging. I love being able to interact with clients and help make a significant difference in someone\u2019s life.<\/p>\n

What are you doing to help with the\u00a0Do-Gooders Auction?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I am Co-Vice President of Auction Execution, so in working with the others on the Board, I have helped put together everything you will see at this year\u2019s Auction! Of course, I will also be bidding on all the amazing baskets and playing the games to win prizes!<\/p>\n

Thank you for your service to the community, Kylie.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
