Considering a career in criminal law? Here, advocacy involves navigating a field with both profound rewards and significant challenges. On the positive side, this career offers the opportunity to make a meaningful impact by defending client's rights and ensuring justice is served. The work is diverse and intellectually stimulating, enhancing advocacy and critical thinking skills. Moreover, there's a level of career stability due to consistent demand. However, the role also comes with emotional strain, as dealing with intense cases and challenging outcomes can be draining. Long hours, a high-stress environment, and ethical dilemmas further characterize this profession. Overall, success in criminal law advocacy requires resilience, a passion for justice, and a readiness to confront the complexities of the legal system. #CriminalLaw #LegalCareer #Advocacy #LawyerLife

Trauma-Informed Survivor Advocate Standing Up for Survivors of Sexual Assault, Workplace Sexual Harassment and Discrimination seeking Justice, and Training the Lawyers that Represent them.
For 50 years advocates have existed in the criminal justice process but not in the civil litigation process even though civil justice is often the only form of justice available to survivors. I'm on a mission to change that. Trauma-informed law must include trauma-informed support. Trauma-informed support does not come from watching a webinar, or taking a training course. Credentialed advocates have the continuous training, experience, and understanding that being trauma-informed is a never ending commitment. Survivors deserve this commitment and trauma-informed support of an advocate from law firms. Research shows the process can add to the survivor's trauma and vicarious trauma to the legal team. Advocates can provide ongoing training and audit of the client experience to the legal team to help prevent burnout and promote self-care and resiliency. This opens up a whole new career path for advocates and I hope to inspire or at least plant the seed for advocates to seek employment in civil law firms while presenting at the National Organization for Victim Advocacy NOVA next week. #NOVA50 #SurvivorAdvocate #CivilJusticeForSurvivors

Ultimately, the overarching goal of the lawyer, akin to the gladiator, is to uphold the principles of justice and fairness. While they advocate zealously for their clients' interests, they also serve as guardians of the legal system's integrity and impartiality. By striving to ensure that the rule of law is upheld and that rights are protected, lawyers play a vital role in advancing the cause of justice within society. #Law #Justice #LegalSystem #Lawyer #Advocacy #LegalBattle #Courtroom #gladiator
