Paralegals occupy a critical role in our firm. They are often the first and closest point of contact for our clients, a blockade against massive defense firms, and a source of unending legal prowess. This year, our Senior Litigation Paralegal, Assal Badrkhani, was given the honor of Paralegal of the Year at the American Association for Justice’s annual convention. Assal was chosen for her dedication to promoting “a fair and effective justice system — and to support[ing] the work of attorneys in their efforts to ensure any person who is injured by the misconduct or negligence of others can obtain justice in America’s courtrooms, even when taking on the most powerful interests.”
During her tenure at Arias Sanguinetti, Assal has constantly demonstrated her dedication to the civil justice system and obtaining justice on behalf of our clients. She has exemplified her expertise in navigating the legal system, excelling when new statues are opened and complex case filing is required. She is incredibly patient, kind, and giving to our clients, who appreciate the time that she takes to understand their circumstances and talk them through case proceedings, always ensuring they have the tools they need to successfully get through the strain of litigation.
Our firm was proud to stand alongside Assal as she received this prestigious award. We are so grateful to have her as a member of our team.
Congratulations Assal!”
