I moved to Houston in 2003 to work as an engineer at
Shell. After a few years I decided to change career
paths and attended law school at the University of
Houston. The summer after my first year of law school
I worked an internship with bankruptcy Judge Jeff
Bohm followed by an internship at Adair & Myers,
PLLC doing mostly bankruptcy work. I enjoy bankruptcy
law because it involves a little bit of many areas of
law and allows interaction with clients. A lot of
practicing bankruptcy includes counseling your
clients and helping them get a fresh start.
I returned to Adair & Myers, PLLC the next summer
to continue my internship and began working as an
associate attorney after passing the bar in November
2008.
In the fall of 2009 I left Adair & Myers, PLLC to
begin working for my mentor, Adam Schachter, at the
Schachter Law Firm, P.C. to continue working as a
bankruptcy lawyer. In the fall of 2014 Adam Schachter
decided to retire and I began the Dove Law Firm, PLLC
to carry on the client-centered method of practicing
bankruptcy law that had been instilled in me
I also volunteer my time to co-teach a semi-annual
class for attorneys called Bankruptcy Basics . This
class is put on through Lone Star Legal Aide. In
order to attend the class the attorneys must agree to
take a pro bono case.
