Is it hard to get a job being a Lawyer?

  • Im studying to be a Lawyer and plan on taking the bar exam to practice in New York ... is it hard to get a job as a Lawyer in New York ?

  • Answer:

    Yes! and No!..Be prepared to be in school the remainder of your life!..Law is ever changing,and if you are a person who doesn't like change you can forget about Law! Also to become a Lawyer it takes a lot of money! Most (not all) are from a fluent families who could afford to send there kids to University...Either you will be paying back a very large loan or you will have to be mommy and Daddies ***** for a long time,and be forced to be nice to everyone you hate at Mommy and Daddies dinner parties:) Are you intelligent?(this is debatable)Are you adaptable?Are you able to remain indifferent in cases such as rape,child abuse,murder,etc ..when in your heart YOU know that a person is as guilty as hell ,however you still have to defend them... You can become a Defense Lawyer,a Crown Attorney ,a Corporate Lawye, etc etc, there are many different areas of Law. If you want to BECOME a Lawyer then get ready to work,being a Lawyer is not just another job you can apply for..You start at the bottom(unless Daddy or Moommy own a firm)you will be in the trenches ,and have to prove yourself to go places. All the best.

Yes. You need to get the highest grades possible and try to get on your school's law review. Get into the best law school you can.
