Why Family and Employment Law—Blog Intro
Before I had even started law school in August 2018, I knew that my ultimate goal was to come back to my adoptive hometown, Cedar Hill, Texas, and open my own employment law practice. Just four years prior, I had relocated from Cedar Hill to Washington, D.C., to complete my graduate degree in Human Resources Management and to gain credible, professional work experience in the nation’s capital. I found the legal compliance component of my HR and payroll management work so engaging that I pretty much had no choice but to go to law school.
At 29 years old, I thought of law school as my last opportunity to satisfy my intellectual curiosities in an academic setting. Before I knew it, I had fallen in love with family law—and as luck would have it, I was somehow miraculously selected to work as a student family law attorney in my law school’s clinical program. After that experience, my plans slightly changed. I knew that I wanted to engage with people regularly, use my legal education to help people in a direct and meaningful way, return to Cedar Hill and be civically involved, and create a work-life balance where I would not have to sacrifice my familial and social lives in order to have an exceptionally successful career. Thus, I pursued coursework and work experiences (see About and Meet Eaujee) in furtherance of my goal of establishing The Law Office of Eaujee Francisco, PLLC, a boutique law firm located in one of the most diverse parts of Dallas County, Texas, specializing in family and employment law.
