I no longer teach law. But when I did I advised my students that they should never accept a case if it meant that by doing so you couldn't sleep at night.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I have an affinity for the law. I like looking at the small type on contracts, and if I could have afforded law school, I probably would have gone.
If you are a lawyer, and you want to take on easier cases, you can prosecute traffic violations or something. You'd have a very high rate of success, and you probably could sleep more easily at night. But that's not what drives me.
While teaching, I also worked undercover in the lower courts by saying I was a young law teacher wanting experience in criminal law. The judges were happy to assist me but what I learned was how corrupt the lower courts were. Judges were accepting money right in the courtroom.
I worked my way through law school.
I like practicing law.
I went to law school with a plan of going back home and practicing law to support my farming, and Dad said, 'There's just not room here for us.' So I took off to practice law and got involved in some politics, and the rest just moved on forward.
Obviously I'm a lawyer; I like to have cases.
I got into law school to supplement my business background. I'm not planning to practice law.
The only thing I learn on a daily basis from law school is that I disliked it and the law so much that it's constantly this fire at my heels.
I learned law so well, the day I graduated I sued the college, won the case, and got my tuition back.
