Ten minutes with Mavis
01What advice would you give to young women entering your industry?
You have to have the passion for it and you have to be very compassionate because you are literally dealing with people that a lot of time they don't have much to offer and they're just simply at a point in their lives where they need legal help. It's not about the money it's simply about having the passion to help out people.
