Hello, I am interested in pursuing a law career, but I have been getting a lot of negative feedback from many of the people I talk to. I have talked to some of my friends who are also interested, as well as got some feedback from those involved in the lawyering field today. Many say that the judicial system now is backlogged and there are too many lawyers trying to get cases.
From the looks of things, it seems like making it big as a lawyer requires you to willingly throw yourself into a cut-throat environment and literally work like a dog for a firm to make a living for yourself. I personally admire lawyering, and I am in no way trying to give lawyers a bad rep or anything, but I just wanted to explore this aspect of the career that so many people seem to cite.
Opinions, anyone?
