Leah Kennedy
Law Clerk

Leah Kennedy (she/her) is a rising third-year law student at Stanford Law School. Originally from Baton Rouge, Louisiana, she received her bachelor’s degree in Music Composition with minors in Social Justice and Human Relations from the University of Oklahoma in 2016. Prior to law school, she worked as an immigration paralegal.
 
Leah is passionate about worker rights and tenant rights, particularly as they relate to immigrants and people with disabilities. As a law student, Leah has been involved with the Disability and Mental Health Network at Stanford (co-president), Stanford Advocates for Immigrant Rights (worker rights advocacy chair), the National Lawyers Guild SLS Chapter (board member), and the Stanford Journal of Civil Rights and Civil Liberties (articles editor). She is the co-founder of a pro bono project that is centered on empowering Latinx families in attaining services for their children with disabilities.
 
Leah is excited to work at the Liu Law Firm this summer. Last summer, she worked at the Legal Aid Society of San Mateo County on the Housing team, advocating for tenant protections during the COVID-19 pandemic. This winter, she worked in Stanford’s Community Law Clinic, where she represented clients in housing, social security disability, and criminal record expungement matters. This past spring, she worked as a law clerk for Legal Aid at Work in the National Origin and Immigrants’ Rights Program. She will serve as a judicial extern for Judge Robert E. Bacharach on the Tenth Circuit in the fall.
