They told her that she would never speak for her autism: today, she is a lawyer

At three years old, Haley Moss had serious speech problems, he did not have any friends and the doctors warned her parents, Rick and Sherry Moss, that her daughter would likely not finish high school, would not get a driver's license and I would never have a "normal life" because I was autistic, but they were wrong.

Last Friday Haley Moss became a member of the Florida Bar Association. She was sworn in at a ceremony at the Richard E. Gerstein courthouse in Miami. The oath was taken by Judge Lisa Walsh of the Miami-Dade Circuit.

"I became a lawyer and became a judge because I have the ability to speak"Walsh said, noting that he has the privilege of being able to represent others. "It's a great privilege for me to swear to someone who has really had to overcome problems and develop skills that are not necessarily natural for everyone."

The inauguration of Moss took place six months after he delivered the opening speech at his Alma mater, Faculty of Law, University of Miami.

A motto that his parents taught him is that Autism makes him different, but not less than anyone. Throughout his life, Moss told local media that She had the innate ability to think, to discover what works and what does not work for her. And this invaluable skill has helped her get out of law school.

"You know what's difficult and what's easy," he said. "I've always been more aware of my environment."

Some things are more difficult: making friends, cleaning and washing clothes. "The things people call what makes you an adult," he said. But her hyperactivity helped her to understand her limitations.

After graduating, Moss got an badociate position at Zumpano Patricios . The founders, Joe Zumpano and Leon Patricios, attended the ceremony with about fifteen lawyers from the firm in Miami.

Moss and Zumpano were introduced by a former business badociate he met at the university. Last summer he was working for the Zumpano cabinet and saw himself offered a job after graduation. For Zumpano, who has a 16-year-old autistic son, the moment was cathartic., because represents the hopes and aspirations of all people with autism, including your son.

"As a lawyer, will have the opportunity to speak for those who can not speak for themselves "he told Moss at the ceremony.
