Coakley Law is pleased to announce it has hired Amber Florest as a part time paralegal! Ms. Florest comes to Coakley Law from a background in the fine arts.

I noticed her organizational talent, attention to detail and quick wit in the Contract Law class I teach at Community College of Aurora and was thrilled to find out after the semester she was looking for employment. I decided to sn**ch her up before the stars come calling, because it won't be long before her talent takes her career there.

Welcome Ms. Florest, and thank you so much for all you've done already in your first week!
