Prior to being admitted to the bar, Ms. Green spent two years as a law clerk at MarcusBonsib, LLC where she drafted numerous trial and appellate briefs and assisted Robert C. Bonsib, Esq. in preparing for the trial of a number of complex and high profile state and federal cases.

While still a law clerk, Ms. Green drafted a Petition for Writ of Certiorari to the United States Supreme Court which was submitted by Robert C.

While a law student and while serving as a law clerk at MarcusBonsib, LLC, Ms. Green was a major participant in the preparation of a sentencing memorandum that was critical in convincing a federal judge to impose a one year home detention sentence in a cocaine conspiracy case where the government sought to convince the judge to impose a 10 year jail sentence.
