It’s always interesting to dive into the success of lawyers who began their life journeys outside of the United States. Christina’s guest today is Rawan Hmoud, Esq., an attorney in Jersey City, New Jersey practicing divorce and family law. Rawan, the oldest of 4, was born in Jordan and moved around the Middle East until the Gulf War forced her and her family to move to Wayne, New Jersey when she was 11-years-old. From a young age, she knew that she liked arguing and looking at problems from a different perspective. Years later, Rawan completed her undergrad at Rutgers University, law school at Seton Hall School of Law, and began her journey to becoming the incredible lawyer that she is today!
