Jake is licensed in Nevada and Utah and has practiced law since 2006.

Danay, our Senior Litigation Paralegal, has worked as a paralegal for nearly a decade. He graduated from Dixie State College with a Bachelor of Science degree in Criminal Justice with an emphasis in Criminology. He is a member of the Paralegal Division of the Utah State Bar and was nominated for the 2020 Distinguished Paralegal of the Year Award. Danay is fluent in Spanish.

Chitra, a paralegal, graduated with a Bachelor of Arts degree from Brigham Young University with an emphasis in English and Accounting. Chitra hails from Tamil Nadu, India and has lived all over the United States, in Great Britain, and in Guatemala. She has long loved the law and the judicial system and serves as the Firm Administrator and Office Manager. Chitra is a voracious reader, has a passion for serving those in need, and is currently working on a master’s degree. When she is not at the office, she spends most of her time as a caregiver, chauffeur, chef, tutor, nurse, and psychologist to her beautiful children. When she can find a free hour, she can often be found catching an episode of Law & Order or reading a John Grisham legal thriller.

Mikka was born and raised in Cedar City, Utah where she graduated with a B.S. degree in Political Science with a minor in Biology from Southern Utah University. She was a legal assistant at a Premier Tax & Legal firm in Cedar City for 2 ½ years before joining Graff Law. Though she has a knack for the numbers and analytics involved in finance, her true passion is in advocating for human rights. She has been thrilled to join the team at Graff Law advocating for women, men, and children through difficult times, and to be gaining experience in an area of law that has always been fundamental in the discussion of equal rights.

Outside of work Mikka enjoys spending time with her husband and two incredible daughters, reading philosophy, studying world religion and culture, and keeping up with politics – both domestic and international. She is hopeful to attend law school in the fall of 2023.
