LawNY is excited to welcome Farrelle Toumani Sieyadji, a rising 2L at the University at Buffalo School of Law. Farelle is joining LawNY as one of the eight Hon. Roy W. King interns in the 2025 cohort. She is specifically working with the Reentry Project in the Rochester office.
The Hon. Roy W. King Diversity Clerkship Program is co-sponsored by the Monroe County Bar Association (through its Diversity Committee), the Rochester Black Bar Association, and the Greater Rochester Association for Women Attorneys. The program aims to increase diversity in the legal profession in the Rochester area by attracting qualified first-year law students from underrepresented groups within the legal profession to work in paid positions with Rochester-area law firms and other legal employers.
Farelle expresses, "I will be helping assist in the drafting of sealing applications, obtaining certificates of rehabilitation, combatting employment discrimination due to criminal records, and spreading awareness of LawNY's reentry efforts in the community. As a Rochester native and someone considering public interest work, I am very grateful for the opportunity to work with this project and serve the community of Rochester."
