THE definitive site for the over 40 "starting over" crowd. Rambling rumbles of all description, refusing to be left behind.

I'm about to finish up my Masters ( Liberal Studies) and I'm leaning toward going for a Juris Doctorate.
I've done well on the LSAT, and can even qualify for a "minority" scholarship at a local "Historically Black" College ( NCCU), it would only take another 18 months, the Bar exam,and viola, I'd be an Esquire.

I think I could help in the area of consumer advocacy, particularly in the field of Automobile Sales, particularly with the contractual and servicability issues that arise, not to mention disclosures requirements.

There is a lot of Bad Car dealers out there ( Shocking revelation, no doubt), and Federal and State laws allow for treble damages in most cases, so there is money to be made, but I would, in essence, be turning against the industry that put me where I am today.

Maybe I could consult Auto Dealers on how to comply with all the rules, regulations, and laws so they wouldn't be sued? The problem with consulting is it requires too much travel and marketing..........

Real Estate Law is boring, Criminal Law pays poorly, Corporate Law amounts to selling your soul, and then there's always the sleezy Accident and Injury market ( **now remember to tell the Judge your neck hurts** )

I just don't know.

Mason,
your response is my gut feeling, I'm sure I'd start out "on a Mission", but as time slipped by, I think I'd just become another vampire, preying on businesses........

I doubt it. Those that "sell out" do so because they CHOOSE to do so.
