         Since working on my senior project I learned how to navigate the website which was very new to me.

3) What research helped you to do this and how?
   Mr. Purther was able to show and help me how to use the link, the link was very new to me but with Purther’s help I got a better understanding on how to use the website. Purther also helped me set it up with a notebook which my notebook consist of two pages of contents, a section for each lecture notes that I do not understand so at the end of each assignment Purther will go over it with me but also for the lecture notes I do understand I will be doing Cornell notes.

Defining the Essential Question

1) what is most important to being a successful criminal lawyer?

2) Successful and Criminal Lawyer

3) determined, confident, motivated, conviction, defendant, prosecuted, defense lawyer, guilty.

4) Antonio J. Bestard has honestly been my most important source because he gave me a better understanding of what criminal law is he helped me get that motivation that I needed to determine if I really wanted to become a criminal lawyer. He explained so many different things to me that I never once knew, Attorney Bestard took me to go watch several of his cases that he was doing and that also helped me get a better understanding.
