Justin Proctor
I was born and raised in Philadelphia. I learned the value of helping others from my father, a lifelong teacher.
I attended the University of Chicago for college and remained in Chicago for several more years before returning to Philadelpha, where I worked as a paralegal for several years. Based on that experience, I decided to go to law school, earning my JD from Temple University.
I worked in Philadelphia for some time in immigration and on several class actions against large corporations. After getting involved in a long-distance relationship, I moved to California and joined the California Bar. I currently live in Martinez.
