Adam Tunik, Class of 2017 Randolph, NE

Throughout the summer, I spent a considerable amount of time on a first degree murder trial. This included everything from spending time with the client at the county jail to the legal research required for arguments at motions and eventually the trial. This experience culminated in a three week trial in which I was given the opportunity to sit at the counsel table and contribute to the defense.
