Unfortunately, unless I change religions, drinking heavily is out of the question! π
I am glad to hear from an attorney that there is a question in his mind about the oft heard glut of lawyers.
It seems like the generally accepted paradigm.
I have been daydreaming about law for the last 8 years but have ignored the urge to go to school because I have been told by people like Loyola2L on the blogs and the WSJ that there is no future in it.
Like I said, I’m just glad to hear a practitioner question validity of the claim.
I seem to think of my wife and baby as good motivation to excel in school. While some kids are 22,out partying, and not real sure why they ever went to law school, I will be trying my best to get ahead. I just hope the wife will be as supportive as she says she will be being a “single mom.”

bjensenParticipantWow juice… this is kindof creepy.
I also want to leverage a law degree for entreprenurial purposes.
Do you have a brother you don’t know about? I’m from Idaho, and I don’t think my dad was ever the milk man around these parts! π

I would proabably only consider BIGLAW for a few years to help pay down my debt, but then I think I would like to take some of my client base and woo them away to a boutique firm with a few other disillusioned associates that don’t like to bill 2400 hours. I am aware that you can’t bill everything… what would you figure your hours billed to hours worked ratio really is?
On the home front, my wife has experience at Goldman Sachs and can find a finance job while I am in school. So that is a blessing.
Of course then I have to figure out what to do with the runt…

Do you mind sharing where your school fell in the rankings… and what size practice you are in?
Thanks everyone!
