If I were a talent scout looking for the best and brightest to employ out of a college or law school class, my sights would be set upon an individual who appears to be an up and coming legal star. Juan Carlos Estevez, who graduated from the Arlington campus of George Mason University Law School on May 17, 2008, is just that individual. A graduate of the Ivy League school, Cornell University, and originally hailing from Miami, Estevez is an exemplary model of the caliber of students that employers are seeking. He seems to have it all.

Bright, engaging, mature, quick-thinking on his feet, and possessing the ability to astutely assess people and situations quickly and accurately, he fulfills a tall order for an attorney at any stage of the game. It becomes immediately apparent that Estevez has a keen analytical mind, can organize his thoughts and synthesize information rapidly, and would prove to be, undoubtedly, a lively legal advocate for whatever area of law he decides to, ultimately, pursue.   He excels in his communication skills and whether he becomes a corporate or private attorney, or chooses to become a prosecutor or public defender, anyone who is on the receiving end of his services will certainly benefit from interaction with him. His personable demeanor and commanding presence present a positive image of the quality student that all aspire to be and that the George Mason Law School has obviously produced.

In this day and age, any good attorney worth his salt has a requisite amount of leadership skills.   Already proven in this regard, Estevez served as the American Bar Association Student President at Mason. He also came out first place, along with his teammate, Robert May, in the Wechsler National Criminal Law Moot Court that was held in Buffalo, New York. Held in favorable regard by judges he has studied under and worked with, Estevez is an additional asset for his bilingual Spanish-speaking capability.

This aspiring attorney has certainly made a positive mark throughout his scholastic tenure at Mason, and he has left a favorable impression of the goals of public service.  There is no doubt that his ambitious efforts will lead to future success that will serve as favorable memories of his days well spent in Arlington, Virginia.
