Many talks take place during your 1L year, ranging from firm lunches to student panels. I found the Nuts & Bolts talks incredibly helpful in a different way. Nuts & Bolts Criminal Practice probably gave me a better idea of what the day-to-day life is like working as a public defender or prosecutor than any other conversation I’ve had. Hearing practicing attorneys’ perspectives and analyzing a real fact pattern was one of the most practical lessons I have received about the practice of criminal law.
