While most of us are working remotely, our elves have continued with the HK tradition of making our office feel festive for the holidays. We can't wait until 2021 to gather and celebrate with everyone in person!
Employee Spotlight
On March 16, 2020, the day shelter in place orders were issued for our county, Hoover Krepelka welcomed Andrea Justo to our team of family law attorneys. Although most of us have not physically met Andrea, she has become a very important and integral part of our culture and team. 

As Chair of the Santa Clara County Bar Association’s Women Lawyers’ Section, Andrea has been actively hosting and moderating events and fundraisers for the Santa Clara County legal community. Her leadership has extended internally as well, as she has proactively kept us all together with creative virtual games. Her clients notice her dedication, attentiveness, and quest for excellence as well, as she continues to collect positive client reviews for her outstanding work in family law. 

This holiday season, Andrea invites us all to get in the spirit by listening to our favorite holiday songs on Spotify. Next month, you can catch Andrea moderating the SCCBA Women Lawyers’ Section as “Lawyering in the Time of Covid” is presented on January 20, 2021 - register here.

We applaud Andrea for making a positive difference in the legal community, as well as in the lives of her clients and colleagues.
Instances of domestic violence (DV) have nearly tripled in 2020 as survivors have been forced to shelter in place with their abusers. Additionally, with schools closed, the opportunity for teachers and mandated reporters to identify a child who needs intervention from DV have been reduced. 
Family and Children Services of Silicon Valley has a dedicated division, Family Violence & Abuse Prevention: Positive Solutions Program, that desperately needs your support. Please consider helping by making a donation of toys, clothing, or gift cards, and together we can help strengthen these families as they rebuild after domestic violence.
Note: In the “Tell us why you donated” section, please indicate DV program.
Happy Holidays!
Wishing you and your family a wonderful holiday season and a happy New Year. We look forward to sharing a brighter 2021 with you!
