Justin C. Paik
“I found my service with the [San Diego County and San Diego Korean American] bar associations to be very fulfilling and it was a great way to meet members of the bench and bar,” said Paik, who currently serves as vice president of the San Diego Korean American Coalition. “I see volunteer work as a totally enriching experience.”
Elyssa Kulas
[Elyssa Kulas and her husband, Ray, are] hoping to celebrate their four-year wedding anniversary in a big way on February 16, the due date for the birth of their first child, a baby girl.
“Hopefully the timing will be just right,” Kulas said with a smile.
In the meantime, Kulas said she is grateful to work for a firm that is “family-oriented” as she approaches the many joys and challenges of parenthood.
“I can’t imagine being on a parenthood journey where the expectation of a certain number of billable hours would come at the expense of raising a family,” said Kulas. “It would be particularly difficult in my situation since I already have a limited time to see my husband because of his regular deployments.”
“Our firm also really was prepared for the remote work model when COVID hit, making the pivot in a very seamless and effective way,” Kulas said. “We didn’t miss a beat.”
