Narrative Personal Statement

From my earliest experiences navigating systemic obstacles, I have been drawn to the law as a tool for justice and accountability. As the owner of Theroux Client Defense Co. of Boston, I provide legal services to those often turned away by firms focused on profit rather than principle. My work has always been guided by a commitment to equal access to justice, particularly for marginalized communities, including those overlooked by the traditional legal system.

Over the past several years, I have engaged directly in high-stakes litigation that reflects both my legal skill and my strategic thinking. I filed a $150 million federal lawsuit against the State of Massachusetts, Governor Healey, and 12 defendants from the Massachusetts Department of Correction, advocating for the rights of individuals within the correctional system. I have also initiated cases against major financial institutions, including Bank of America, TD Bank, N.A., and Safety Insurance, Homesite Insurance of the Midwest, and Plymouth Rock Assurance Insurance Company, many of which resolved through out-of-court settlements, or have continuously passed two or more firms requests to dismiss and were denied, Skylar has even filed judicial complaints against prejudicial judges to hold the system accountable. These experiences taught me how to navigate complex procedural rules, draft meticulous filings, and think strategically about leveraging legal instruments to achieve justice.

In the realm of housing law, I am actively in high-stakes litigation seeking over $15 Million Dollars+ in US District Court of Massachusetts, Suffolk Superior and the Massachusetts Appeals Court against JAG IG Longwood Property, LLC, where I have filed verified complaints, Temporary Restraining Orders, and class-action-related motions. I have submitted over 75 pages of verified exhibits documenting harassment, retaliation, and selective enforcement. These filings reflect my ability to combine legal knowledge with strategic advocacy, ensuring that individual and systemic injustices are addressed.

Beyond the courtroom, my professional journey includes investigative journalism, performance, and public advocacy. I interned with NECN/NBC-10 Boston and ABC40/FOX6, published written work, and maintain a platform as a social media influencer. These experiences have strengthened my skills in research, communication, and storytelling—tools that are invaluable in the practice of law.

My path to law school has been unconventional, but it has prepared me for the challenges of legal study and practice. I have confronted powerful institutions, navigated complex procedural landscapes, and demonstrated tenacity, strategic thinking, and ethical advocacy. Each case I have undertaken has reinforced my commitment to the law as a vehicle for accountability, systemic reform, and protection of individual rights.

I am now ready to bring this experience to a Massachusetts ABA-accredited law school. My practical litigation background, combined with my dedication to civil rights and systemic advocacy, positions me to thrive in rigorous legal study and ultimately to make a meaningful impact as a lawyer. I aim to continue championing justice for those marginalized by traditional legal systems, advocating for systemic reform, and using the law as a tool to create real-world change.
