Blog 7: Independent Component 1 Approval

1. What I plan on doing is further research on negligence. I plan on finding more readings on negligence and developing further analysis. I plan on taking most of the 30 hours researching and taking notes based upon what I find. The rest will be writing further analysis in a review of it all.
2. I plan on researching heavily from the beginning of the component and from there take notes upon what I read. That should take some time majority of the 30 hours required. The rest should be developing a review upon the notes of my research and show a great deal of understanding of the material I researched.
3.This should give me a much better understanding of how negligence law works because I take peer reviewed research from many different sources and then articulately portray it in a review of my own.

Blog 6: Second Interview Preparation

1. As of right now I do not have a mentor but there is one pending who really needs an intern within their personal injury department at the Law offices of Mauro Fiore Jr. in West Covina. So hopefully it goes through and I can work there and find a new mentor.

2. Even though I do not have a mentor at the moment but I can get one before the interview is due and when I do acquire a mentor I would ask him/her these questions:

1. What school did you attend and why?

2. What made you want to pursue personal injury?

3. Why not any other type of law?

4. What was the reason for coming to this specific law firm?

5. What is the history behind this law firm?

Blog 5: Mentorship and Research Reflection

1. Unfortunately my mentor has a new schedule and won't be able to mentor me anymore so as of now I have to find a new mentor and so far I have one pending in West Covina a personal injury law firm. Hopefully it will go through and I can work there it's not far from home and it can really help with my senior project.

2. The most important article I have read so far would be "Elements of a negligence case". It really helped me see what makes a negligence case and what I have to do to make sure the case is legitimate.

Bonus September Blog

Unfortunately my mentor recently received a new schedule and must be in court four days out of the week and he now does not have the time to mentor me so now I have to look for new mentors and I have been calling and looking around my area for any internships available.
