Archuleta Featured as a ‘Promising Start’ by Colorado Law School

In the News

Brandon Archuleta was recently featured in Colorado Law School’s newsletter as a “Promising Start,” a series that recognizes recent alumni who have found satisfying, meaningful employment in their first five years after graduation. While Archuleta did not expect to leave Colorado after graduation, his open-mindedness, which has been the key to his success, led to his current role with Lane Powell.

How did you find your job?

It was truly a serendipitous series of events that brought me to Seattle, but to take a step back, I spent my first two years of practice with Molson Coors Brewing Company (MCBC) as one of their two “legal residents” (think of it as a corporate clerkship). That job provided a unique start to my career and gave me great experience and opportunities to hone my skills. That position is term-limited to two years, but once I started looking for my next opportunity, I was able to leverage the experiences and skills I gained at MCBC, as well as my connections, into my current position at Lane Powell, which is a midsized Pacific Northwest law firm.

I think it’s important to mention that I was not looking to leave Colorado when I was searching for my next job after MCBC. I was truly seeking the best opportunity for me, and while I knew (for various reasons) that I wanted my next step to be in a law firm setting, I approached my search with an open mind about what my next role might look like. Another thing that’s important to mention is that I received a number of rejections before landing a number of offers, including the one here at Lane Powell. And it’s a good thing I did! If one of those firms had hired me earlier, I never would have found what turned out to be the perfect opportunity and role for me. Sometimes you just have to appreciate the struggle.

Before proceeding, please note:  If you are not a current client of Lane Powell PC, please do not include any information in this email that you or someone else considers to be confidential or secret in nature.  Prior to the establishment of a lawyer-client relationship, unsolicited emails from non-clients containing confidential or secret information cannot be protected from disclosure.
