My internship was with Dale Bryant Attorney at Law. When I stated, the only thing that I knew was to research case laws. However, that is not what he intended for me to do. I have learned in my internship that researching case law is not the main priority. I have learned through the internship that I have grown on a professional level. I know what is expected of me on a day-to-day basis. I have gained the knowledge from the internship that I could not have learned in the classroom.

Bryant is an Attorney that is just starting out, he does things the way that he was taught in law school. On the other hand, Mr. Mitchell is a very experienced Trial Attorney with years of experience. He has learned to do things his way over the years. Mr. Mitchell has been very patience with me. He too will walk me through things that I do not understand. Only after being with Mr. Mitchell for two short days his paralegal quit to go to another job closer to home. I was overwhelmed at first. Mr. Mitchell showed me the correct way to do things since the paralegal was no longer there to help. Mr. Mitchell tells me every day that he is very pleased with me work. He makes sure that he gives me something new to do every day. I can create Power of Attorneys, Wills, Living Wills and just finished my first deed. He gives me challenges on a daily basis, so that I do not get bored with my work. I have learned the importance of keeping up with a paper calendar, not only the office calendar. In our office, we use Clio. Clio is a way to keep up with court dates and personal information on our clients. We can keep up with time and documents. Clio is also great because whenever Mr. Mitchell is in court he will connect to Clio and pull up anything that he needs to know about the client that he might not remember. We can add photos to the client’s name in Clio, in cause, Mr. Mitchell has not met the person, and he will know who he is looking
