Brown Law Group associate Farzeen Essa was featured in the spring issue of California Western School of Law’s Res Ipsa magazine. The article ‘About Face’ by Shannon Strybel highlights California Western’s Diversity Initiative. The article states:
Essa, 29, is another powerhouse graduate who sharpened her legal skills at California Western. In the three years since her graduation, she went on to become a passionate advocate of human rights and “the right to be treated fairly and with dignity regardless of one’s life circumstances. Essa, currently an associate at Brown Law Group, became interested in the California Innocence Project student during her second year and wrote motions, interviewed witnesses, examined evidence, and assisted in investigations. “It was a wonderful experience, and I hope I played a small role in making a difference in a person’s life,” said Essa, who graduated at the top 5 percent of her class, magna cum laude, in 2006. While attending law school, she received numerous awards, and participated in Law Review, Lawyers’ Club, and the South Asian Law Students Association. Soon after graduation, she and eight other women formed the Girls Think Tank, an award-winning grass roots organization dedicated to such issues as homelessness, trafficking of women, and gang violence.
Congratulations Farzeen!
