  • Spent 3 semesters participating in the Veterans Legal Advocacy Center, which is a pro-bono legal clinic that my law school ran which specialized in helping veterans who received a less than honorable discharge apply for a discharge upgrade. Veterans can receive a less than honorable discharge for numerous reasons, usually which are not their fault, and a less than honorable discharge drastically reduces the benefits these veterans are entitled to received.
