From Schoolyard Bullying Victim to Criminal Defense Attorney: Brett Rosen's Journey
By
Lexi Lane
A second-rack bagel that's nearly first-rack. Tasty stuff.
Summary
Brett Rosen, who was bullied as a child but stood up for others on the playground, has become a criminal defense attorney who now defends people in court. His childhood experiences of feeling 'powerless' against bullies shaped his determination to stand up for what is right and advocate for those who cannot defend themselves.
Key quotes

I had something ingrained in me that made me stand up for what was right.
