Hon. Timothy Weiner (LL.M. \u201910) wants Chapman University\u2019s Dale E. Fowler School of Law students to keep an open mind and learn as much as possible about the area of law in which they\u2019re interested.<\/p>\n

And students would be wise to heed his advice \u2014 because after all, it worked for him. Weiner was just appointed to the Los Angeles Superior Court by Gov. Jerry Brown earlier this year.<\/p>\n

But before his appointment \u2014 and before serving 15 years as a deputy attorney general for the California Department of Justice and two-and-a-half years as a Superior Court commissioner \u2014 Weiner was an undergraduate at the University of California, Santa Cruz, fully intending on becoming a school psychologist. Although he was accepted to a Ph.D. program in educational psychology, he decided to try his hand in the private sector, where he worked for about five years as the director of operations for a marine electronics company.<\/p>\n

So how does one go from school psychology to the marine electronics industry to becoming a Superior Court judge? It may not be as big of a stretch as it first seems. At least, not once you hear Weiner talk about the importance of volunteerism and service to the community.<\/p>\n

\u201cAfter working in the marine electronics industry, I decided that I wanted to do something that would have a positive impact on my community,\u201d Weiner says. \u201cI knew that whatever I did as a lawyer had to incorporate some type of public service. Working as a criminal prosecutor or public defender provides an outstanding opportunity to serve.\u201d<\/p>\n

Weiner reflects fondly on his time in the LL.M. program at the Fowler School of Law<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cI owe a lot to Chapman University\u2019s Fowler School of Law and the opportunities it has provided,\u201d says Weiner. \u201cIn any competitive market, there\u2019s a tremendous number of talented people applying for limited spots. Getting an LL.M. from Fowler was a very positive accomplishment, and I have to believe that it helped to distinguish me from other qualified applicants.\u201d<\/p>\n

Another aspect of the Chapman experience that stood out to Weiner was the small class size.<\/p>\n

\u201cCareer prosecutors from all over California and the military met in the program,\u201d Weiner says. \u201cMeeting and studying with a small group of experienced prosecutors was really great.\u201d<\/p>\n

Weiner continues his goal of service as an adjunct professor at Southwestern Law School and as a captain in the California State Military Reserve\u2019s Legal Support Command. \u201cI teach and talk to students a lot,\u201d he says. \u201cI always tell them to learn about different areas of law, so they can keep their options as open as possible.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cFor instance, I decided that I wanted to be a prosecutor, and just assumed I\u2019d be a deputy district attorney. After learning about the work performed by state prosecutors, I ended up as a deputy attorney general at the California Department of Justice \u2013 and loved it!\u201d<\/p>\n

With the Fowler School of Law\u2019s practice-ready approach that includes legal clinics, internships, paid positions and numerous externships, students have many opportunities to explore their options the way Weiner did.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere is nothing more important than externships,\u201d says Weiner. \u201cIt\u2019s where you meet people and try out your skills. It\u2019s where you learn from people who are actually doing the work you want to do.\u201d<\/p>\n

So what\u2019s next for Weiner? Disneyland?<\/p>\n

\u201cA place on the Superior Court bench has been my goal for such a long time that I truly haven\u2019t given any thought to what might be next,\u201d he says. \u201cRight now, I\u2019m just enjoying the opportunity to serve as a Superior Court judge.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
