GRATITUDE CORNER: Kaufman Rossin Accounting Fellow

Legal Services is made stronger by the support of individuals and companies in our community. We are thankful to Kaufman Rossin for funding a tax fellowship within our Jacqueline Allee Smith Legal Fellowship Program.

 As part of its rich tradition of social responsibility, Kaufman Rossin established this fellowship to provide future accountants the opportunity to work in the field of public accounting while also supporting the local community. This fellowship provides socially minded, talented students the opportunity to develop essential skills working in Legal Services’ finance department. This years’ fellow is Jaylan Watson, a senior at Florida International University majoring in Finance.  Jaylan says, “Being an intern at Legal Services has been amazing. I enjoy being able to help those in need and gain experience in accounting while studying at the university. It is truly amazing to know that the work we do here is for a greater good.”

Thank you for providing this impactful experience, Kaufman Rossin!
