Casino Night Was a Sure Bet for
Entertainment
This year’s Holiday Benefit Gala and Casino Night was the perfect party
at exactly the right moment and for a good cause. Held on December 3rd,
it was a great kick-off for the holidays with its own magical moments for
all. The good will started at the door where guests dropped off a mountain
of brand new warm winter blankets and thoughtfully packed goody bags
(otherwise known as hygiene kits) for distribution by People Assisting the
Homeless (“PATH”). We were overwhelmed by the generosity!

entirely pervasive. They permeate the entire market
for legal services and there is no single solution that
will eliminate the justice gap in California. This is
only echoed by the thousands of pages of documents
that Cal Bar was kind enough to overnight me at
no charge. Although I still have a massive amount
of reading to complete surrounding the individual
discussion points that took place in subcommittees,
I have managed to abstract the task force transcripts
from the hearings where the proposals were finalized.
The ‘New Group’ proposal includes a transition
from discussion to substantive design on the LLLT
issue. For now they suggest a single subject area
be used as a pilot program and only be launched
in select markets. The decision has not been made
on what area of law is initially included in the pilot,
but family law, consumer law and landlord-tenant
disputes are at the top of the list. Additionally, rather
than have years of costly educational requirements
that must be met through traditional law schools,
they are considering something along the lines of
a specialized training program through community
colleges, online institutions and other low cost
mediums that qualify you to practice in a specific
area without having to go through two full years of
education, as Washington requires of their version
of the LLLT. This, ultimately, was meant to mitigate
any costs incurred during the licensing process
being passed on to the end consumer.
Keep in mind that none of this is final and the task
force left the overall educational requirements to sit
for a licensing exam in each area to Cal Bar’s Board
of Trustees. Furthermore, they have recommended
that there be a period of public comment on the
meat of this proposal and that Cal Bar interface with
the California Supreme Court following that period
in order to handle some very heavy issues that are
necessary for this to become a reality. For instance,
there is substantial concern amongst some members
of the task force that there are antitrust issues
should Cal Bar oversee the program. That, in and of
itself, creates a wide range of issues surrounding the
administration of a program such as this.
All in all, I have to say that I was fairly impressed
with the manner in which the task force approached
these issues. There was a thoughtful and balanced
exchange during the final hearings that allowed for

As many of us know, expert witnesses can make or
break a trial. A thorough search can tell you and your
law firm if an expert witness has prior experience
testifying in front of a jury and if their expertise
has been key to successes at trials or has been
discredited. More often than not, opposing counsel
may consider settling a case out of court when they
find out that a respectable expert witness has been
hired to testify on behalf of your law firms’ client.
That said, researching and identifying your key
expert witness can be crucial.
Many would like to settle their cases out of court
to avoid additional costs due to lengthy trials that
can drag on for years. But before your law firm
goes to trial, many would like to be prepared for a
particular judge. This seminar can show you how

For your reading pleasure, a regularly recurring column on the fun of travel.
The Sillars, Seeking Sooke
by Elisabeth Patmore Sillars
There are almost 100 named islands which are part
of Washington State, not all of which are occupied;
I don’t know how many of them are located in
the Strait of Juan de Fuca, north of the Olympic
Peninsula. Probably most of them. Looking on the
map, it’s slightly complicated by the fact that there
are also some small Canadian islands in the Strait.
However, when Paul and I finally left the Peninsula
in June 2011, our destination wasn’t any of those. It
was Vancouver Island, the 800-lb. gorilla in the room.
With our passports current, I couldn’t imagine
being so close and not going home for a short visit.
Especially when we’re that close to either the city of
Vancouver, where I was born, or Vancouver Island,
where I spent more than half my childhood.
Now, just because we were on Canadian soil rather
than “Amurrican,” as LBJ used to pronounce
it, didn’t mean that we did any better at going
everywhere and/or doing everything on our itinerary.
For example, by the time we were approaching the
municipality of Sooke and where we were staying
on the lower southwest coast of the Island, looking
back towards the Olympic Peninsula, it was already
approximately 3pm -- and there were nine proposed
shopping locations on our list! In fact, we didn’t
do too badly, making about half of those stops,
including the Tugwell Creek Honey Farm (didn’t
care for the mead, but the honey was a treat).

Filing & Retrieval
There was a practical excuse for some of it: we had
a full kitchen at our disposal for three days, and the
last thing we wanted to do on the first night was
dine out. My research had turned up two bakeries,
a fresh seafood vendor, a butcher, and a source for
the local cider. As it was, we stopped at none of
those, and did most of our shopping at the local food
market instead without any apparent loss of quality.
The pattern continued next day. By the time we’d
had breakfast and cleaned up, I was anxious to get
in the car and head north up the southwest coast of
the Island. The local lighthouse and beaches on the
itinerary were the first casualties of the day, requiring

more time for proper investigation than our morning
would still allow. Tides were the problem at the
Botanical Beach in tiny Port Renfrew (you need low
tide to explore tide pools, eh?), and the two supertall evergreens supposedly located somewhere near
the road (the “world’s tallest standing fir” and the
“San Juan Sitka spruce”) were sufficiently well
hidden that we didn’t know how long it would take
to find them….
The primary plan for the day was to take the Pacific
Marine Circle Route and cross the Island along
the south shore of Lake Cowichan in the morning,
using former logging roads that are now paved for
us wimps, before making a loop south and west to
return to Sooke. I’d never made that drive before.
It’s only become possible in recent years, and
although the remnants of all the clear-cut logging
make for fairly depressing scenery (thanks again,
MacBlo), we did find it an interesting trip.
Remarkably, our timing was perfect for the late
lunch reservations I’d made at Steeples Bar & Grill
in nearby Shawnigan Lake, a “village” (so says
Wikipedia) on the other well known lake in the area.
Not brilliant, though lunch may not be their forte.
Hot Tip for Foodies: we were told by our waiter at
this restaurant that it was against the law in Canada
at that time for them to serve even “medium rare”
ground beef, let alone “rare,” and I believe it’s still
illegal to do so. So be warned! It’s my understanding
that some secret violators can be found through indepth research and planning, but one should likely
be prepared for disappointment. Further, I’d argue
that unless you like your burgers “well done,” you
may as well order something else entirely (ground
poultry isn’t included, or are steaks and other
unground cuts of beef, or fish – ground or not – and
I’m unclear about ground lamb and pork, etc.). We
hadn’t heard of the law before, so the whole thing
came as quite a shock to us.
Amazingly, our day’s journey actually followed our
itinerary from this point on. After a side trip to enjoy
the views from high up on Malahat mountain, just
off Trans-Canada Highway 1 and close to where I
lived for several years (until our house burned down,
which is another story altogether), we visited two
Sooke art galleries on the way back to our lodgings
on Orveas Bay, and made it to the unusual Point-nocontinued on page 6

additional development of the recommendations
made by each of the subcommittees. Ultimately,
the task force decided to take a fairly conservative
approach to the creation of a LLLT in California due
to the fact that Washington’s version of the LLLT
had only recently been implemented and there was
little hard data upon which they could base their
recommendations. That being said, at no point did
the task force dismiss the idea of an LLLT and they
expressly stated their support for the creation of
such a profession during the final hearings. All of
this seems to be sound judgment, yet I think it is
necessary for us to weigh in as often as possible
in order to ensure that the exploratory period isn’t
unnecessarily protracted.
Although there was not any definitive step taken
during this process it is important to note that
President Rodriguez, the first public defender to be
elected President of the State Bar, has previously
expressed his support of the LLLT as the chair of
the work group which resulted in the creation of the
CJSTF. Furthermore, he concluded the final hearing
of the CJSTF with a quote which provides me with
a measure of patience in the development of this
specific program. As Justice Lewis Powell, Jr. said,
T R A V E L L O G - continued from page 5
Point Resort, which we had passed on the morning
portion of our drive, in time for a wonderful sunset
dinner there.
The Resort has been around since 1952, and
the Soderbergs, its current owners, have so far
expanded the Resort’s lodging options to 25 unique,
handsomely appointed cabins with kitchen facilities
set at varying heights overlooking the Juan de Fuca
Strait, and several trails leading down to the shore.
I’ve never stayed overnight, but I’ve been curious
about the Resort since I first happened upon it
back in 1973, around the time the Soderbergs took
over. In fact, the first photographs I ever made that
interested me were taken on steps at the Resort
descending to the Pacific Ocean.
We had one more day in the Sooke area, which
included a few rather special experiences (to become
fodder for my next article), and several more days
afterwards which we spent “up-Island.” Naturally,
all of this resulted in a somewhat humorous hit-ormiss adherence to the vaunted itinerary! G
“Equal justice under the law is not merely a caption
on the facade of the Supreme Court building. It is,
perhaps, the most inspiring ideal of our society. It
is one of the ends for which our entire legal system
exists. It is a fundamental that justice should be the
same in substance and availability without regard to
economic status.”
It may take time but, if that is truly the sentiment
driving today’s Bar, I can wait…

I began my adventure as a paralegal with the Los
Angeles District Attorney’s Office, specifically
with the Major Crimes Division where I assisted
Deputy District Attorneys with high profile and high
publicity cases. I then jumped over to private law
firms, working on white collar crime and complex
civil litigation matters at Kirkland & Ellis LLP,
Howrey LLP and Ogletree Deakins. Currently, I am
a paralegal manager for The Walt Disney Company
in the Corporate Legal, Litigation Department. I
supervise paralegals in both the Burbank, California
and New York offices. In addition, I am a member
of the Disney Paralegal Development Committee
where I work with other paralegals throughout the
company in providing continuing legal education
opportunities as well as learning and development
enrichment. Finally, I am the current director of
Women in e-Discovery for the Los Angeles chapter.
I believe my legal background and commitment
to supporting the paralegal profession would be
beneficial as a Board Director for LAPA.”
Terry Wright has added to the Board’s number of
NALA certified paralegals. She describes her career
thus far, “I earned my Bachelors of Science degree
with honors in Business Management from The
University of Phoenix, Inc.; my paralegal certificate
from California State University, Bakersfield; and
attained a paralegal certification and an advanced
certification in contracts administration/contracts
management from NALA. I have had the opportunity
to serve in plaintiff and defense law firms, providing
assistance in areas of workers’ compensation, civil
litigation, medical malpractice, insurance defense,
and employment law. I am currently employed by
Dignity Health (over 16 years of service) as a Senior
Corporate Paralegal, working under the supervision
of Senior Counsel and reporting to VP & Associate
General Counsel, Operations. I assist in supporting
15 southern California hospitals and clinical
affiliates in negotiating and drafting contracts
relating to supplemental staffing, laboratory services,
transport, education affiliations, and other service
agreements to meet operational needs; provide
back-up with physician contracts and contract
administrative responsibilities; and provide services
at the system level in efforts to promote efficiency
and cost effectiveness. I served as Chairperson of
Dignity Health’s Employee Activity Committee for
approximately five years, spearheading multiple
employee events and fundraising activities. I am the
proud recipient of Dignity Health’s Values in Action
Award, demonstrating the core values in my everyday
life. I continue to collaborate and participate in local
philanthropy events such as Northridge Hospital
Medical Center’s annual Victim for Violence 5K run,
American Diabetes Association’s Step Out Walk,
and support a community shelter.”
Ivan Zogovic rounds out the new group and he,
too, is a NALA certified paralegal. “I joined LAPA
in 2012, during my studies at UCLA Extension’s
Paralegal Training Program. It was a matter of
professional pride to belong to my professional
association, but the main draw was LAPA’s long and
ongoing quest for professional excellence, and its
dedication to continuous professional and personal
improvement, something that I cherish the most.
Since I believe that we, the members of LAPA,
have responsibility to lead by example, I try to do
my part by volunteering as an instructor for our
CLA/CP Exam Review Course since November of
2013, and by mentoring new and less experienced
paralegals, and students. These shared values are
best confirmed by my academic and work history:
before earning my Certificate in Paralegal Studies,
I received a Bachelor of Laws degree from the
University of Belgrade, Serbia; most recently,
I earned a Certified Paralegal designation from
NALA, a Certification in eDiscovery from OLP, and a
Certificate in Litigation Support from DTI/LitWorks.
I am currently employed at Parsons Corporate Legal
department, volunteered with the Public Counsel
Law Center and ACLU, and held a litigation support
assignment before the International Tribunal in The
Hague.”
Maria Teresa Bravo, Bogdana Koiso and Bobby

a Paralegal Certificate from UCLA. As a paralegal,
I worked for about ten years handling worker’s
compensation cases in the same law firm in
Beverly. The medical background that I acquired
while working in the personal injury field and my
knowledge of Spanish were very helpful. I still work
for the same law firm, Neil C. Newson & Associates,
but in personal injury litigation, medical malpractice
and dissolution cases. I am certified as a SpanishEnglish translator and interpreter. In July, 2007 I
received a Bachelor Degree in Paralegal Studies
from National University. If I am elected to serve
as Director for the 2015-2016 term, I would like
to continue serving as Co-Chair of the Pro-Bono
Committee as I am interested in being able to
give back to the community what I have learned
as a paralegal. In that capacity, I will continue
working with agencies that provide legal aid and
services to economically and socially disadvantaged
persons. I would also like to continue as Co-Chair
of the Legislative Committee as I am particularly
interested in the functions, scope; exclusions,
voluntary certifications of Paralegals, and in
reviewing United State Supreme Court decisions,
and State and Federal cases that may have an
impact on Paralegals. I am also in the Board of the
Beverly Hills-Century City Legal Secretaries (BH/
