Andrew John Hawes
About Andrew
Biography
I earned a Bachelor of Arts Degree from Northwestern University. I then graduated with honors (cum laude) from the University of Wisconsin Law School.
While in law school, I worked hard on developing excellent legal writing and speaking abilities. I competed on my law school's Moot Court Team, and I finished as a Semi-Finalist in my national competition. I sought out challenging internships, working as a Judicial Intern in the Chambers of Chief Justice Shirley Abrahamson of the Supreme Court of the State of Wisconsin. I have also worked for the U.S. Attorney's Office, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources, and the Cook County State’s Attorney’s Office. These experiences all bolstered my writing and speaking skills, skills that I remain dedicated to constantly improving.
I am honest and straightforward. If I do not have an answer for you, I will tell you so, and then I will go find an answer for you. I will zealously work to represent your interests and to get you what you want within what the law allows.
