Scott Rafferty is Sonia’s friend at Princeton who, after a summer job as an associate at Shaw, Pittman, Potts & Trowbridge, encourages Sonia to attend a recruiting dinner with one of the firm’s partners. Even though he had a great time working there, he’s on Sonia’s side when the partner is awful and racist to her. He gives up the guarantee of a post-law school job with the firm in order to support her.
