Abusive litigation tactics do little for the client or the lawyer. Rather, such behavior is the hallmark of a second-rate attorney. Under both the state and federal judicial systems, a newly-minted lawyer is required to maintain the respect due to the courts of justice and judicial officers.[1]
A firm believer in the saying “everything happens for a reason,” Katharine Tremblay recently joined the California Department of Justice as a Deputy Attorney General in the Employment and Administrative Mandate section of the Attorney General’s Office. Prior to heeding the call to public service, Tremblay enjoyed a successful and over decade-long career in private practice, where she focused mainly on employment, business, and contract law.
Happy New Year, NLD Members!
Let me start by introducing myself. My name is Elijah Gaglio, and I am going into my fifth year as an attorney. I have been involved with the New Lawyer Division (NLD) since 2021 and am happy to continue to serve as the NLD Chair. I also want to acknowledge the amazing work of NLD’s previous Chair, Stephanie Pengilley, and our former Members-at-Large, Hannah Theophil and Heather Daiza. Thanks to them, NLD was able to host great events and grow its membership last year.
