UC Law Student’s undergrad experience leads to involvement with DV Clinic

The clinic provided a way to assist people during an emotionally tough time. When working with clients, she helped ensure they received the protection and assistance they needed that worked best for them in the moment.

"We don’t pressure clients to pursue exact avenues: we work with what the client wants and needs and make sure they get it," she says.

The clinic also does an excellent job in matching students with other areas and cases that they are interested in. For Medosch, that was immigration law.

“It’s been a great all-around learning experience and it’s very cool to see things result in something positive,” she reflects.

Moving forward, Medosch plans to continue working with family or immigration law. “Those are two areas I’m really interested in and passionate about,” she says.

And thanks to her undergraduate degrees, she is able to do just that by communicating well with Spanish-speaking individuals.

Medosch choose UC because of its large public interest base that promotes community involvement.

“I loved seeing that they were constantly giving back and constantly interacting with others,” she says.

Despite the troubles presented by COVID-19, she still has had a great learning experience at UC.  

“They’ve been really good about making sure we still network and meet with attorneys and judges. I’m really surprised and happy with how great of a job they’re doing,” she says.
