GF&M Participates in the Legal Administrative Assistant Program

Gale Burnett, Senior of Howard High School in Wilmington Delaware, is taking advantage of the Legal Administrative Assistant Program sponsored in part by the law offices of GF&M. High School students in the Legal Administrative Assistant Program learn the core responsibilities of a legal assistant. These core duties primarily focus on performing and coordinating an office's administrative activities and ensuring that information is disseminated to staff and clients.

The Legal Administrative Assistant Program is partnered with the StreetLaw Diversity Pipeline Project, DuPont Corporation, along with the law offices of Young Conaway Stargatt & Taylor developed an annual conference where students in the legal program have the opportunity to utilize their legal knowledge in solving a fictitious case, with the support of various attorneys that attend the conference. During the junior year, the legal students are paired with legal mentors, along with an SAT Prep course. Students also participate in the Delaware State Mock Trial competition.

Gordon, Fournaris & Mammarella, P.A. is a proud sponsor of this worthy program. Both Gale Burnett and the law offices of GF&M are benefiting from this program.
