After graduating from Harvard in 2006, Alejandro was admitted to practice law in the State of California and joined Kirkland's San Francisco office.

Alejandro has extensive experience with formulating executive compensation arrangements and has assisted in the formation of, and provided counsel to, non-profit organizations.
Law Preview was very helpful in preparing me for the first year of law school. The professors were engaging and provided important insight into what to expect in classes and on exams. Taking Law Preview increased my confidence and allayed my worries regarding the pressure of law school.
