Spring 2023: Bose McKinney & Evans Internship
For the past three years as a BME Intern at Bose McKinney & Evans, I provided administrative support to the team, enhancing daily workflow and boosting overall productivity. I managed confidential client files, contracts, and legal documents, ensuring strict adherence to accuracy, accessibility, and data privacy regulations. Additionally, I was responsible for updating and maintaining the firm's client database, which improved client communication and record-keeping. Below, in the Spring 2023 semester, I worked on new responsibilities such as creating new workflows for our Knowledge and Research Department and getting ready our File Group for retention policies/processes.
Reflection
My internship at Bose McKinney & Evans solidified my interest in pursuing a legal career. By managing confidential client files, contracts, and legal documents, I gained firsthand exposure to the critical importance of accuracy and attention to detail in legal practice. Navigating data privacy regulations underscored the ethical responsibilities lawyers hold in protecting client information.
As I prepare to enter law school, I am motivated by the practical insights I’ve gained into the legal industry. I am eager to build on this foundation, developing the legal expertise necessary to contribute meaningfully to the profession and serve clients with integrity and diligence.
Summary
During my internship at Bose McKinney & Evans, I organized and managed new tasks within the firm’s library system. As a new librarian, I was vital in streamlining information management and supporting the firm's operational efficiency. This experience strengthened my organizational skills and adaptability in a professional environment. Likewise, with the File Group, I helped our new retention policies be accurate and effective for the upcoming destruction season.
