Grace Mlynek
@gracemlynek
Law student and legal intern focused on bankruptcy, banking law, and tax compliance.
What I'm looking for
I am a Juris Doctor candidate (expected May 2026) with an MBA and a Bachelor in Political Science and Women, Gender & Sexuality Studies, combining legal training with business acumen and active student leadership.
I have practical legal experience conducting research and analyzing multi-state and federal banking laws at a bank legal internship, and I have built bankruptcy petitions, reviewed means-test issues, and attended 341 hearings and adversary proceedings in a bankruptcy practice.
I also bring accounting and operations experience—processing payroll, preparing quarterly reports for multiple companies via QuickBooks, consulting disadvantaged-business-enterprise clients, and managing/hiring teams—so I deliver client-focused, detail-oriented support across legal, tax, and business contexts.
