my boyfriend is gonna go to law school, but he wants to do some basic work at a firm before he goes to earn some experience and some dollars. do you have any nyc law connections or suggestions for the Williamator?
i do not (yet) have any nyc law firm connections, but i do have suggestions for william.....
if he knows for sure he wants to go to law school - just go. i'm sure he'd like to avoid loans if possible, but first-year salaries in nyc just went up to $160K a year and they will probably go up even more by the time he finishes school. he's not going to make anywhere near that working as a paralegal or something like that in a firm, and he'd still have to take out loans.
oh, also - a really high lsat score is key to getting in places and getting scholarships, so he should really take a course if he isn't already getting 170+ on the practice exams!
