JOIN ME!!! It has been suggested that I share a li JOIN ME!!!
It has been suggested that I share a little bit about my career and life as a litigator. So...I am jumping on Instagram on Monday at 7 to chat it up and answer questions for anyone curious about what it is really like to be a lawyer, litigator, black female litigator, criminal defense attorney, mom, woman etc.

I am hoping my colleague @coolrelaxed will have time to jump up here with me and give his perspective.

My resume😊
I have been a criminal defense attorney in North Carolina for 21 years.
