Studying for my ged at age 24 I’ll be graduating this year. I want to study law. History is very interesting to me. Also knowing my rights. Honestly I’ve had an amazing public defender, I’ve also seen people have not so great ones. I always wished someone could have the same experience as mine. It would be so rewarding to give some one the opportunity my lawyer gave me.

I would say first be sure that this is the path you want to go down. Also, not being afraid to lean on your support system. Prepare yourself and the people around you for this new journey. Take breaks, lean on your faith (if you're religious) and plan things out and be as organized as you can. Hope that helps. Believe in yourself! You've got this!

I know, a lot of people say you shouldn't do law if you're not serious or passionate about it, or your doing it because you don't know what you want to do, but I think that is the best job for me because 1. I hate math and stem 2. English is not bad, I can do some critical thinking The problem is that I've heard that lawyers is on call all the time and doing a lot of documents before going to court and winning (or losing) the case. I mean as long as I can organize everything and work well, I will do it. But, I have a sewing hobby that I WANT to continue into my adulthood. I talked to my dad about his suggestion of being a lawyer and the money and job sound stable, but it seems very strict and structured. Honestly, considering my personality: anxious and hard working and stubborn, can I handle it? I'm so afraid... p.s I have more, but I'm not going to push all my burdens onto this comment

Greetings Sister First congrats on having successfully completing law school and becoming an attorney. I can most certainly say you will always be on-call, our minds run a million miles a minute, you almost have to be nuts to be in this profession or nuts about this profession. This is a legal company and we get tons of questions and requests from friends family co workers anyone who know what you are, who you are. We connect with attys across country and you are correct that school does not prepare you for every practice, some things you will need to learn etc, we handle estates, wills, business formations contracts, and will eventually move into family law and real estate, notary etc. I enjoyed your video thoroughly and thanks!

If you have a friend who is a lawyer and want advice from that friend, offer something. Anything! Taking them out to lunch, offering some sort of service in return. One friend of mine offered to paint a picture of my cat if I helped her with a small legal issue. I appreciated it and we were both happy to be able to help the other. There is liability with every question lawyers answers and I don't think people understand that either. The question that always makes me cringe and brace is: "Can I ask you a question?" I know that they're going to ask a legal question and then it puts me in this crappy position of having to either take the liability if I give a wrong answer (which often means I need to do research to make sure I'm giving the right answer) or I look like a jerk and say I don't offer legal advice outside of work. So if you do have a friend who is a lawyer and want to ask a question, it goes a long way to offer a little something in return so that the friend doesn't feel taken advantage of. The only reason that friend has that answer is through years of hard work and stress.

I'm about to become a senior undergrad and law school is compelling but I'm worried it isn't for me (introverted and worried about work-life balance) and not worth the steep price tag to even apply.. I don't know if I should hustle now and get an application in to schools when I don't even know what kind of law I want to study, or just wait to apply and work to gain some life experience instead first. Would love to hear your insights on how you made the decision!!

I think you can look into getting accepted and maybe deferring a year or two. Also maybe try some internships or summer jobs at a law firm. Even if not an intern you can get a glimpse into what it’s like to work at a law firm. Also there are many different avenues as a lawyer not just a traditional law firm job. Work life balance is definitely something i am still working on managing but i wouldn’t let being an introvert deter you! Thanks for the video topic idea, I will get on it! ☺️

I'm 13 and really know nothing about being a lawyer (I did watch legally Blond though 😅) and recently I have been thinking about being a lawyer so I'm doing some research to figure out if it's the right path for me! Edit: I want to become a lawyer but I'm too lazy lol. I won't have money for college and I just want to be a housewife. 😃 It's not the right path for me, but it was fun to think about!

You mentioned at 6:00 that you have multiple cases simultaneously. As a lawyer do you get to choose how many cases you tackle to prevent feeling inundated? Not to mention, you get to focus solely on one client at a time to give them the best outcome with their case?

I'm 15 and have to choose my grade 11 courses. It's so much stress especially because we're expected to know what we wanna do as a career. I am thinking about being a lawyer, but what I'm worried about is the amount of hours you have to work. I want to still have time for travel and family and I don't want my life to revolve too much around work. How is the work-life balance being a lawyer? Do you have time to travel or have a family? I know it's good money but it it truly worth it?

law schools look for people who can read and write well. legal writing and research is a big part of law school and 1-L so try lit or history

This is probably late, but whoever’s telling you that you have to know what you want to do at 15 must be insane. Just take classes you enjoy. Some colleges don’t even let you declare your major when you are a freshman. Because you are not supposed to know! Just explore your interests and by sophomore year of college, you will figure it out. And trust me, you will change your mind so many times, and that’s ok.

I do my best to remain positive, switch gears to another task, spend time with my family, talk to friends and family and pray. Best way for me to track my time is writing it down as I go, the most efficient way is to use timers but you have to remember to timers when you switch matters.
