24 Hours with 24 Lawyers: Profiles of Traditional and Non-traditional Careers

It would put you off being a lawyer

I read this book even during finals in the US law school. It is worth reading for current and future law students because it is full of fun. The book is all about "reality show" version of career book traces the 24 lawyers. However, it is different from "reality show" in two aspects. First, it emphasis on how lawyers balance their work life and social one more than on real "stress" supposedly from six-digit salary. This makes many law graduates comfortable given that they are approaching into the tough market these days. Second, this book describes various pathways that recent law school graduates might confront right getting out of the law school. Even though many law schools invite their alumni to share their experience from big law firms and large corporations, it is quite rare that they have music industry consultant, venture capitalists, and even musicians all with law degree. Even though it has been said that lawyers always have been expanding their markets for decades, recent law school graduates have never been given a chance to advocate their passion, many students have been confined them to seek traditional lawyering. This book can open the door to the new field in the tough market again. This book is definitely for the one who is curious about insider view other than outsider perception or edited website or one-hour career seminars as introduction pointed out. I recommend it showing of glimpse how non-traditional lawyers should time-control their new venturous life here in the United States. -Recent law school graduate

This is a great book to read if your interested in learning about different types of lawyers and what a day in the life of a lawyer is like. I'm getting ready for law school and it was very helpful to see the profession from different points of view.

Very good book so far but didint finish it since i lost it at lax 😂

You want to know what lawyers really do, how hard they really work, and what their lives are really like? READ THIS BOOK. I happened across it while doing research for my next book (addressing the question of whether people should go to law school) and I am going to put it on my blog and suggest that all of my law school admission consulting clients read this. It's a great deal on Kindle (only $9.95) and offers detailed insights into various legal careers. It's not just a list of what lawyers do each day as I feared when I purchased it - it's an in depth conversation with attorneys about what they do and how they feel about what they do. Lawyers surveyed graduated from all levels of US law schools (NYU, Thomas Jefferson, etc.) and even some from overseas. Absolutely read this!
