Careers in Law Series
August Focus: Public Interest/Social Justice
What is public interest law? Public Interest law refers to legal action taken to help underserved or marginalized communities. Types of public interest law jobs range from working with homeless individuals to working with the immigrant community.

In this episode, Blueprint CEO Matt Riley speaks with Karen Aguilar, Removal Defense Attorney at Coalition For Humane Immigrant Rights LA (CHIRLA) and Adjunct Associate Professor of Law at Southwestern Law School. Aguilar has spent many years fighting for the fair treatment of the immigrant community in Los Angeles and leverages her background as a first-generation lawyer to bring a unique perspective to all her cases.

*What obstacles do first-generation students face in undergrad and law school?
*What is Imposter Syndrome and how do you fight it?
*Does attending community college instead of a 4-year university hurt your chances at law school?
*What sorts of cases does a Removal Defense Attorney defend?
