Re: Andrew Canali

Andrew Canali has asked me to write him a letter of reference, and I am pleased to do so. I am a partner in the litigation practice group and served as Mr. Canali's principal during his coop term at our firm which ended in April 2011. During his time, Mr. Canali was exposed to different facets of commercial litigation. Mr. Canali was professional, personable and a pleasure to work with. He demonstrated initiative and was always willing to help. I would not hesitate to recommend Mr. Canali for a junior paralegal position and I am certain that Mr. Canali will grow into a valuable asset in whatever organization he joins. I would be pleased to answer any questions you may have; please contact me at the phone number or e-mail address above if you wish further information. Yours truly,
