Why is "I don't" not an appropriate answer to "do you like law school? " I would 100% rather hire someone who gives an honest answer and can explain their answer rather than someone who makes up nonsense. Many people do not enjoy law school. That's ok.

Odds are, if you openly dislike law school, you're also probably not going to like working as a lawyer. Some people hate law school and love being lawyers, and vice versa, but I think there's a difference between not loving everything about law school (totally normal) and saying you don't like it at all. I think it's fine to give a diplomatic answer ("I'm enjoying learning about X, but find some aspects challenging.") but to just flatly that you don't like it and leave it at that suggests a certain lack of tact, if nothing else! And it doesn't move the conversation forward, which is part of the evaluation process in the interview - can you carry your end of the conversation if we put you in front of a client?

The economics are tough if you have to borrow for law school. But it's an interesting time with AI and access to justice, where it may be possible to bring the cost down for legal services and still allow attorneys to pay back their loans!

Great interview. As a pro se litigant, legal ai has been a tremendous help, and a simultaneous frustration. When it provides truthful information it's great. When I have to often deal with ai lies, and perpetual ai apologies, it's infuriating! I've been using Casetext @$500 per month for six months. I'm changing to Paxton ai next week @$99 per month. Using the Paxton trial, Paxton seems to be much better than Casetext and costs 80% less.

Is it frowned upon to send a seat deposit while you're still on the waitlist?
@LawSchoolToolbox
@LawSchoolToolbox 4 ай бұрын
To a different school? I'd image that's fine, since you may or may not get off the waitlist at the school you prefer. The downside is you'll lose the seat deposit, if you do get in elsewhere and decide to switch and go there. I'm talking to Anna Ivey later this week, so I'll get her thoughts and update if they are different!

@@LawSchoolToolbox My apologies. I meant is it inappropriate to send a seat deposit to the school you’ve been waitlisted at? For example, I’m about to commit myself to an institution I’ve been waitlisted at, and along with my letter of continued interest, I enclose a cashier check containing the seat deposit amount.

I am worried about my oldest granddaughter. Top grades in high school. Got a full scholarship for Florida State Univ. She wants to be a lawyer. FSU full scholarship but no dorm for her. Her parents taking her to Tallahassee to see and talk to the college. We don't want her living off campus, but maybe must. Even so, my daughter told me even if they can get her an on-campus dorm, still about same amount as off-campus 2 thousand a month. And, again, I fear she is making a mistake to be a lawyer. She's only 18. How would she know? She gets into her 30s, I think the natural desire to be a mother will hit her. And the career itself will hit her. Despite a full scholarship at FSU, it's still a lot of money, only to be desperate to get out of the legal profession in her 30s. Any advice?

Thanks for the question! If she's just now starting college, she has plenty of time to explore her options. Law school doesn't require any particular major, so she can choose anything in undergrad (preferably something she will do well in, and learn critical thinking skills). She should also try to get some internship or summer work experience in the legal field, if she really is serious about going to law school. Better to understand from the start what is required than to be surprised later! It is definitely a demanding career path, but one that many people find rewarding.

I can speak from personal experience that many of us will appreciate the clarity on your Data Security & Privacy terms. 1. Can this be used by those not necessarily licensed to practise law, i.e individuals or Self-Represented Defendants? 2. Is Paxton AI geared more towards any specific type of law? i.e Criminal vs Civil vs Corporate vs Family Law, etc 3. Is it relevant to the Canadian legal system as well? legal datasets/databases, etc 4. Outside of Legal Research, Does Paxton AI offer suitable tools for Disclosure Analysis and Review? 5. Do you offer custom solutions, or is your software a "one-size-fits-all" tool? If so, what is a point of contact for your sales team?

I'm in delaware, I used my right for constructive eviction because I see landlord was neglect to fix the mold issue, I was reporting for more than 55 days and they just do minor repairs but never addressed the origin cause of the mold which was a leaking from upstairs, so after that I got a an expert tested if we have mold and the test came back positive so we moved to a hotel but we left our belongings in the unite till we get approved with other landlords, after finding a new place and after 55 days of reporting mold in unit I checked and they never fix the issue inside the walls have a black mold very visible, so I give them termination notice and stated the cause was mold in unite never fixed, and I spent 4k in expenses in hotels and other fees to move out, the landlord didn't care about my expenses and sent me a final statement to pay a 1 month penalty, how I should proceed in this case if it was you what you will do, I have pictures since day one and I have copies of our emails and communications and I have certificate from inspector saying active mold in unit

I wish this was more structured and focused. This is a more general discussion. A bit rambling. Some good points around accountability, scheduling, accommodations, family responsibilities. Would have loved to see a real focus on the day to day activities that keep you ahead, beyond “do the reading two days before class”, my current plan. Single tasking could have been really expanded upon.
