Ep 26: Killing It in Court & Diapers — Real Talk with a Lawyer Mom w/ Era Kryeziu
In this episode of Conversate with Akeem D. Earle, we sit down with Era Kryeziu, a rising personal injury attorney in the DMV area who is redefining what it means to balance a demanding legal career with new motherhood.
Era shares her powerful journey from graduating UDC David A. Clarke School of Law to handling immigration and family law cases at the DC Affordable Law Firm and now thriving in personal injury law. She opens up about the challenges of studying for the bar exam during the COVID-19 pandemic, building her career from the ground up, and what it takes to show up in court and at home with equal excellence.
We talk law, life, and everything in between, from courtroom realities to her experience becoming a mom while building a thriving career. If you're a law student, a young attorney, a working mom, or just someone trying to juggle ambition and real life, this episode is for you.
