Meet Berke-Weiss Law's 2025 Summer Law Clerks

Berke-Weiss Law is delighted to have the assistance of two law clerks for the summer of 2025, Julia Davidson and Nahara Franklin!

Julia is a rising 3L at Fordham Law interested in plaintiff-side employment law and consumer rights law, with a particular focus on data privacy and tech regulation. She is also an advocate for LGTBQ+ rights, focused on supporting trans and nonbinary New Yorkers as they navigate the legal name/gender marker change process and access healthcare. Julia graduated from Northwestern University. Prior to attending law school, she taught high school English at public schools in Chicago and Brooklyn for six years.

Nahara is also a rising 3L at Fordham Law. She served as the Assistant Online Editor on the Environmental Law Review after 1L.  Nahara’s interests include litigation, contract negotiation, compliance, and employment/labor law, particularly where they intersect with entertainment law. Prior to law school, she worked as an educator and earned a master’s degree in early childhood education. Before teaching, she attended Texas State University where she majored in Psychology and minored in Criminal Justice.
