Meet Our Alumni

Senior Associate, Lippes Mathias LLP in Buffalo

I chose UB Law because, as a native of Buffalo, I had a strong connection to the community and knew I wanted to build my career here. UB Law offered me an excellent legal education at a cost that was significantly more affordable than many comparable institutions, which made it a practical and valuable investment in my future. Additionally, through my work experience at a local law firm prior to law school, I saw firsthand how close-knit and supportive the legal community is in Buffalo and that reinforced my desire to contribute to the profession right here at home. 

I developed many skills during law school that have been useful to my professional career—most notably, becoming a much stronger writer and learning to manage a demanding workload while effectively balancing multiple responsibilities. My involvement in various student organizations at UB Law helped me build leadership and networking skills as well.

Every law school has distinctive qualities, individual cultures, and a unique atmosphere. Visiting a law school can help determine if it’s the best place for you.
