Calling all lawyers!?
Find answers to your legal question.





Calling all lawyers!?

Okay so I am only 15 but have a strong passion for justice and the law. The career path I want to follow is somewhere in Law. So here are my questions. First I want to know what type of lawyer you are and if you like it. If you don't like it what would you rather be? How did you go in year 12? Are you a naturally smart person or did you try your hardest and eventually make it in? What law school would you recommend? Victoria preferably but if you think that an interstate one is definitely better please let me know. At the law firm you are at is it family friendly? And the last question and probably the most important. CALLING ALL MELBOURNE LAWYERS - I am doing work experience next year and think it would be perfect for me to do it at a Law firm. If your law firm or some one you know would be interested please leave an email for me to contact. If you cant answer all of these questions thats fine, even answering one would be a great help! Thanks in advance!

Good luck in your career. I'm not a lawyer, but just wanted to add that Law Course at Melbourne Uni is probably the best for your career. Notice I didn't say the best. Namely because employers don't have time to care which course is the best, they just look at the name of the uni and think 'Cool Melbourne Uni' - s/he must be smart. Once you do become a lawyer try hard not to be an idiot. The law industry is full of people who think they are good because they've done law. In reality they are among the stupidest people I've ever met. No common sense what so ever. Which is probably reflected in our laws.
