Lawyers - Do you know your MBTI personality type?

Anonymous
So far most lawyers posting have indicated they are NT types. Are the NFs (the minority) in traditional law jobs? Are most of you NFs happy in your work?

ENTJ - like the others!

INTP or INTJ - depends on the test I take.

Curious if the NF's practice in certain branches of law, such as ADR or public interest work? I ask because being an Intuitive Feeling type isn't too congruent with a lot of law jobs where rationality and logic are more important values than empathy and idealism.

ISTJ, with a very close N/S split. The J is almost off the charts. Very few "F"s in law, I would imagine.

I think you might be the first "S" in this thread (although I see you have a lot of "N" too). J off the charts? Wow, my P self would have problems living with you!

ISTJ, but borderline (meaning I'm not on the extreme on any of the 4 measures). I'm strongest on the T, but still within the "slight" range. I'm lowest on I.

right on the line of T/F
very much P

Left law to be a writer. I liked the analytical/logical side of law a lot when I practiced.

DH is an INFP. He left law years ago and was unhappy practicing. He couldn''t stand the adversarial nature of law.

I'm PP with the ENFJ husband-- he is in patent law.

The first ENTJ PP here - should have said my wife, also a lawyer, is also ENTJ, although we have completely different practices. I'm a litigator and she's a regulatory/legislative person.

ISTJ (though it has varied over 20+ years).

PP here, very close N/S split, off the charts "I" and relatively heavy "J".
