Another caveat can involve finances literally as at least half of these jobs fail to pay
as well as what associates or partners make. Sure, a lawyer/writer can make as much as
John Grisham, but realistically that can take years, if not decades.
If you are a young lawyer or even a veteran lawyer who might want to utilize your degree
in a non-legal position, carefully consider what that position is. Ask yourself how you can
be an influencer in that position and the ramifications that you may experience from going
a different route with your degree other than practicing law.
In Conclusion - Law and the practice of law can apply not just to a wide range of
professions. Law and the practice of law covers a wide range of our society. At times it
seems as if law and its knowledge influence nearly everything we do. To be honest, this
makes sense because we are a country of laws. In another way, the huge swath of
professions that law can apply itself to demonstrates the enormous influence law has
over nearly every aspect of our daily lives.
This shows the power of law, as well as the amazing adaptability of lawyers themselves.
