Besides a lawyer or judge, what do you go to law school to become?
|
I know that you go to law school if you want to be any kind of lawyer, or judge, or maybe a college professor. Is there any other good careers you could pursue that you would want to go to law school for?
Thanks in advance for answering!

Attending law school can give you a lot of options including the following:
- Working on contracts
- Consultant
- Human Resources Manager
- Non Profit Management
- Entrepreneurship
- Advocacy
- Politics
- International Relations
- Paralegals
- News Journalists - TV anchor
- Law Enforcement eg FBI, CIA
- Researcher
Essentially, you want to look at the skills developed during legal training and how important they are in other careers. Skills such as research, analysis, advocacy, public speaking and writing are all great transferable skills. |

Educated.
Many people in business have law degrees, and in other fields too. Like Bill Kurtis, TV newsman and documentary film maker. Also many government jobs. |

Educated says it best, I have a cousin who has his JD and CPA - He's a Venture Capitalist, and has made 7-8 figures for each of the last 10+ years. |

Several of my classmates are now working in corporate Human Resources depts. They make sure that the company is following both state and federal laws on hiring/firing, etc. I know that insurance, securities, and other companies who must comply with laws of many states, will hire attorneys as compliance officers. A compliance officer makes sure that the company is following not only the Federal law but the law of the state they are selling in. Many corporate executives went to law school and continue to maintain a license to practice law. The corporate world values the extra effort and diligence it takes just to get through law school and pass the bar exam. |
