Later in Life Lawyers

“Nontraditional” law students face unique challenges and opportunities, from juggling family schedules to taking classes after a full day in the office. The second edition of Later in Life Lawyers: Tips for the Non-Traditional Law Student [Find it] looks at law school from the perspective of someone who did not follow the traditional high school to college to law school route. The broad topics covered are: getting in, first year, 2L and beyond, and general considerations. Short sections incorporate insights from hundreds of non-traditional law students, as well as the author’s own thoughts. The book is easily skimmable, making it worth checking out as a casebook diversion, even in the run up to exams.
