SPOTLIGHT Yodit’s story is one of survival, commitment and success At first glance, you’re probably thinking, “she has got to be a supermodel.” Actually there’s a whole lot more to Attorney Yodit Tewolde.

Legally Lethal She knows the law and she uses it to fight and win for her clients

A graduate of Southern University Law School who worked in the Dallas County District Attorney’s office, her family’s story is one of survival, impeccable work ethic and what happens when you work hard and treat people as you’d like to be treated. When she was a baby, many of her family members immigrated to America from the African country of Eritrea. With family members already here in Texas, the transition went a lot smoother for her family, she said. She excelled in school and attended Texas A&M University, where she majored in English and Communication. While her practice, The Law Office of Yodit Tewolde PLLC, handles a majority of criminal and immigration cases, previously she worked on both sides of the courtroom as a prosecutor and now defense attorney. She says working as a prosecutor in both the adult and juvenile systems has provided her with a wealth of knowledge and experience in trial advocacy and representing the State in trials and hearings has helped her better understand the intricacies of litigation.
