McLaughlin & Nardi, LLC is pleased to announce that Brooke Fulmer will be joining us as a law clerk.  She will be full-time during the Summer, and part-time during the school year.

Brook is heading into her third year at New York Law School where she is an editor for the New York Law School Family Law Quarterly.  (New York Law School is something of a farm team for our firm with four of our attorneys having earned their J.D.s from there.)

Aside from her academic accomplishments, Brooke brings significant experience for a law clerk to the firm.  Brooke served as an intern for the Justice Dakota Ramseur of the Supreme Court of New York, First Judicial Department, Civil Branch.  She serves on the Patent Law Clinic at New York Law School.
