Then, Suren joined Levin & Nalbandyan, LLP, where he worked as a law clerk getting hands on litigation experience under the supervision of attorneys. After passing the bar, Suren worked at another plaintiff’s employment law firm, until recently rejoining Levin & Nalbandyan as an associate attorney.
