Yasmene decided to go to law school because she knew she wanted a career where she could advocate for people and make a meaningful difference in their lives. She was always drawn to the idea of using her voice and skills to help those who might not otherwise have the resources to stand up for themselves.
During law school, Yasmene had the opportunity to intern with GLP Attorneys, and that experience completely shaped the direction of her career. She quickly realized that personal injury law was where her passion truly lies.
Personal injury stood out to her because it is deeply people-focused; every case represents a real person whose life has been disrupted, whether by a serious accident, painful injuries, or the stress of dealing with medical bills and insurance companies. What drew Yasmene in was the chance to not only advocate for clients in the courtroom, but also to support them through one of the hardest times in their lives. She witnessed how impactful it can be to take some of the burden off of clients’ shoulders, making sure they don’t feel alone in the process, and ensuring they are treated fairly.
