and trustworthy.

I wanted to thank Ms. Haney in particular for her professionalism and
thoroughness. When she made her points to the judge, adversary, law
student or client, one didn’t easily forget. Most forceful and
effective. Thank you.

I am writing to you about a wonderful, intelligent and dedicated
student in your program. Kathryn Todryk [GWU Law 2008] was
assigned a public
defender for my son [...].
[... My son] ran over to try to break up the fight. [... My son] was
charged with simple assault.
Kathryn had the presence of mind to take a photo of the bump on [my
son's] head. After representing him at his arraignment, she went
with him to an [... administrative] hearing. She came prepared
with subpoenas for
surveillance videos [...] where the incident occurred, as well as for
statements taken [...]. Her quick thinking proved invaluable
[...]. The video was able to prove that [my son] was telling the
truth, that [...] he acted to
defend others.
I truly commend her. She is bright, creative and
knowledgeable. Kathryn has excellent instincts. She was
also very available to speak with me, any time I had questions. I
am grateful for her involvement in my son's case. I believe
Kathryn will make an outstanding lawyer.
[...] Please accept this [...] as a token of our appreciation,
gratitude, and support of your fine program.

I just want to say thank you to
[Ann Marie] and all of you
at DCLAWSTUDENTS.
I came to the office on Friday, stressed and
confused, I
waited 2 hours before seeing someone, so I was in a bad mood. Anyway, she helped me tremendously! I went to court [the next week], focused and
certain of what to do, all because I came into the office on Friday. I came in for help with a pending
eviction. The judge stayed the eviction
until [the end of the month], which is perfect, I'd plan to move by
that
date. Every thing worked out
great!! I thank GOD for each of
you. Again, THANK YOU, EACH OF YOU, I
really appreciate what you do for so many at no cost!

They [the staff attorneys] care
about the person. The person comes before
the money. They are true people. This is the best agency [LSIC] I’ve
ever
dealt with in D.C.

I have had three very
professional and very informable law students assist my family and
myself with our housing issues. Each student took the case to a
different level of satisfaction for me. Although my case took a
little more than two years to get any real positive results, without
the law students I don't know where we would be or what our mental
status would be. The law students pushed, pulled, phoned, and
photographed any and all things needed to get our points across.
Thank you to everyone that aided myself and my family in this matter
and good luck to all the law students in their future careers.

I came to you when I was distraught and in a mess
I'd gone to so many government agencies and put to the test
My home for thirty five years was vanishing without a sound
When your warmth and physical work made my spirits rebound
I'm still here but you've graduated and you're going back home
What you've done for me, I have no fear I'll have to roam
Keep the spirit that touched my heart for others like me
As you rise to the top, helping them to see
It doesn't matter if life gives you obstacles to allay
Search your hear our Creator will show you the way
May your personal life be happy and fruitful, I pray
And thanks for reaching out to take my hand that day
