To be honest with you there isnt any. You will not be sued i dunno why anyone would sue a lawyer for what? You are the one doing the sueing. Regardless if its common danger only thing is retribution from people especially in criminal law. You put a good case and able to put someone away for a long time there might be reprucussions from the opposing side. (mafia,gangs,etc...) I have a few members of my family who are lawyers , all have not experience danger except one of them. Had his windows shot out in his house. Noone really found out why but im sure had something to do with his work. So all and all i wouldnt worry about dangers. Just like any other profession there are risks. But personal safety like one in a million anything would ever happen to you.

There are NO jobs!! I am a 2L at a Tier 2 school, in the top 7% of my class, on Law Review, and I cannot find a job! Even students at Harvard and Yale are having trouble finding employment. Do not go to law school expecting that you will come out of it making a 3 figure salary. Some of my classmates spent 150K on law school, graduated, and are now making 30K.

Honestly?
It is so hard. And I cannot stress that enough to you. I have so much respect for anyone who has pulled through. They are amazing.

The lawyers I know are all afraid of being sued. Apparently suing lawyers is some kind of national sport.
