Question 5

How did Whittier Law School help nurture your interest in this practice area?

Besides the fact that Whittier gave me good background in the law, Professor Michael Bazyler helped to encourage me to follow my goal and to become more involved in the international arena through my involvement in the Czech Republic. He became my mentor and was also very helpful in bringing Justice Motejl to the law school.
