Personal Statement for Law School
Please write a personal statement on my behalf,
I was born in Miami, raised by Cuban parents who had to leave Cuba due to Communism and come live here in order to have a better life. They both met here in Miami and had both been divorced. They worked very hard in order to provide for me and my brother and make sure we had the best future. (They only Speak Spanish)
Some challenges I had to undergo was that about a year ago during my undergrad my dad was diagnosed with Cancer, and I had to help my mom out with bills considering my dad was not able to work most days. As of right now he's currently well and Cancer-free. This making me a stronger invdividual.
I've always excelled at creating arguments within probable debates and using strategies in order to combat certain arguments.
I've been working at a law office for almost 4 years since the age of 18 worked full-time working hard as a Paralegal specializing in Property Insurance working closely with Plaintiff attorneys while also doing full-time at university and maintaining a good GPA.
I studied Political Science in undergrad. Took classes such as Comparative Politics, International Relations, and Political Theory.
Law school has always been a dream since I was a kid. I'm interested primarily in Business Law but I'm open to any other kind of Law. (Go into detail about law, and other things why it interests me)

For instance, they persevered and overcame heartbreaking experiences, including going through a divorce and leaving their nation due to the communism challenges in search of a better life.
Life was not always easy for our family because we had diverse financial and other problems to handle. Even as a child, I could feel that although my family was struggling, my parents worked hard enough to provide a better life for my brother and me.
