Paving an untraditional path to real estate law, Andrew looks forward to the challenges and opportunities each day brings: "I absolutely love what I do, which I don’t think everyone is fortunate enough to say.

🌞 Wishing You a Bright Summer Ahead from Hepler Law & Consulting 🌞 As we officially welcome summer, I’m excited to share some reflections and updates from Hepler Law & Consulting. Each season, marked by a solstice or equinox, offers a chance to reflect on the past and plan for the future. This Summer Solstice, I’m particularly grateful for the growth, connections, and experiences of the past spring. Spring Highlights and Reflections: 1. Professional Milestones: Sworn into the Washington State Bar and soon to be admitted to the New York Bar. Expansion plans include establishing new locations in Seattle and New York City to better serve clients and grow operations. 2. Community Involvement: Hosted artist Jaclyn Eckersley for Sandpoint’s summer art walk, attended and donated to the Sandpoint Pride Festival, and continued involvement in the community land trust initiative. 3. Personal Celebrations: Celebrated my son Arlo’s third birthday and my own thirty-third birthday. Both milestones were filled with joy, reflection, and gratitude. 4. Travel and Exploration: Spring was filled with both local exploration and exciting trips to Seattle, British Columbia, and more. These travels offered a chance to meet new friends, gain fresh perspectives, and find moments of peace amidst the busyness. Advice for Fellow Professionals: 1. Embrace Change: Use the changing seasons as a natural reminder to reflect, plan, and set new goals. 2. Balance Work and Personal Life: It’s challenging but crucial. Delegate where you can and make time for family and personal growth. 3. Stay Connected: Whether through community events or professional gatherings, building and nurturing relationships is key. 4. Prioritize Self-Care: Take breaks and travel when possible to recharge and gain new insights. As we move into summer, I’m excited for what lies ahead, including more adventures and a trip to Europe. I encourage everyone to take a moment to reflect on their spring and set intentions for the summer. Wishing you all a season filled with growth, joy, and new opportunities! https://lnkd.in/gVhq3Q9d

Trial week at Yugo Collins, PLLC ! We try cases. It’s what we do. Christopher Collins Mia Yugo Risk is par for the course when you’re a litigator. But this week was special because it was the first ever arbitration for our Summer Associates Hannah Todd and Tyler Ward! (This case was bifurcated so one part of it will be tried before a jury, and the other part before an arbitrator). You can’t be a good litigator if you’re afraid of trial. We love the courtroom. We love trying cases, and we like talking to judges and juries. Summer Associates need to see what practicing law is really like. That means they need to participate in trials. They need hands-on experience. Don’t sugarcoat the practice for your interns. Show them the real thing. We won’t have a verdict until next week. But our trial team, including Tyler & Hannah, have each made predictions, so we’ll see what happens. #triallawyers #lawyerlife #therealdeal
