[blindLaw] FW: Any practicing attorneys in Illinois willing to give advice to a law student

[davant1958 at gmail.com]

Good Morning Cecilia,
There are several blind attorneys in Illinois.
Michal Nowicki was admitted to practice about five years ago, and is
successfully employed. You can email him at treasurer at nfbofillinois.org.
John Holgrae is now a 2L at Northwestern University and I think he completed
an summer internship. I can try to locate his email.
The above are the two most recent.
Then there is Patti Chang, pattischang at gmail.com, who is retired from the
city after a 27 year career and now works as our Outreach Coordinator for
our national office. My name is Denise Avant, and I worked for 30 years at
the Cook County Public Defenders office. I serve on the American Bar
Association's Board of Governors.
There is also one blind attorney at the U.S. Attorney's office for the
Northern District of Illinois.

hi, I am a second year law student, and I am interested in practicing law in
Chicago or  anywhere in Illinois after graduation. Would any attorneys who
practice law in Illinois be willing to contact me off list to talk about the
legal market and give me advice on what you did to find summer internships
or employment after law school?

Thank you
