My name is Avital Gertner-Samet and I am an attorney seeking a position at a law firm in the Bay Area. I am confident that I will provide great value to your firm and here is why. First and foremost, I have never lost a case. As a law intern, my fellow attorneys used to refer to me as their ‘good luck charm’. However, luck had nothing to do with it. I possess exceptional analytical skills and I am extremely perceptive. I harness these special skills to navigate through black letter law and precedents as well as the lacunae in them and find a solution for the case at hand. My well-honed observation and interpersonal skills also allow me to read and understand my clients, their opponents and representatives which is also a vital skill of successful lawyers. Additionally, in furnishing daily legal advice to my corporate clients I have had to deal with complex legal issues and provide swift and creative solutions. I have proven my ability to work in a stressful work environment without losing my creative and analytical edge. My broad experience, strong creative and critical thinking abilities, and proven interpersonal skills would make me an asset to your firm. I look forward to an opportunity to interview for a position in person. Thank you very kindly for your time and consideration. Sincerely, Avital Gertner-Samet |
