What is the most important thing you gained from this experience? Why?
The most important thing I gained is that I came to understand the work life of a lawyer in the courthouse. Previous to this project, I didn't fully know what exactly criminal lawyers did. The only real knowledge I had was the cliche tv show lawyer concept. I got to see all the work and stress that the lawyers have to do out of the spotlight of the courtroom, and it was truly enlightening to experience.

How has what you’ve done helped you to answer your EQ? Please explain.
My experience at mentorship is what shaped my essential question. I focused on misedemeanor cases because that's what they focus on in the courthouse, and alot of what I saw when mentoring was the client interview. So, it also benefitted my research in comparison to what was happening in real life. It basically allowed me to fact check my research and see how beneficial or not what I was reading was.
