We are proud to celebrate Amanda Jonas Lorentson and the students of the Diverse Mentoring Initiative, who were recognized this week by Speaker Joanna McClinton on the floor of the Pennsylvania House of Representatives.
Amanda founded DMI to pair diverse first-year law students with leading plaintiffs’ firms throughout Pennsylvania, creating access, mentorship, and opportunity for students who have faced real barriers on their path to the legal profession.
Through her trial practice and her leadership of DMI, Amanda is helping build a plaintiffs’ bar that better reflects the communities it serves.
VSCP LAW is proud of Amanda and every DMI student helping bring this initiative to life.
