Episode 23

The USLawEssntials Law & Language Podcast continues its series of interviews with multilingual lawyers, featuring a recently successful bar exam candidate, Chunxia “Violet” Cole. Violet shares some of her dynamic life experiences as a successful project manager from China who came to the United States, and then embarked on an exciting career change by enrolling in a US law school, earning a new degree, and becoming a New York attorney. Violet is currently an intern for the Honorable Wilma Guzman.

Violet offers insightful perspectives as a multilingual student who studied law in China and the United States and the very different approaches to learning the law. She describes how she formed a bond with fellow law students from around the world as they mastered case reading, legal writing, and the many challenges of passing the bar.

If you have questions for Violet (or us at USLawEssentials) feel free to contact her on LinkedIn or email us at daniel at uslawessentials dot com.

The reference to an exercise involving a banana peel comes from the excellent Legal Analysis: 100 Exercises for Mastery by Cassandra Hill & Katherine Vukadin.
