[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A law degree is useful because it allows entry to the legal profession or it trains you to analyze with the legal implications in mind.  However, you've never taken the bar and don't plan to take it, and you don't remember anything from law school.  So you would like to make use of your law degree but not practice law or do a job that requires you to think legally. So I guess your question should be you want a position that superficially requires a "JD" behind the name but the actual functioning of the position does not require any legal acumen? [/quote]

OP here.  Correct.  I'm wondering if I can still use my JD somehow.[/quote]

But (I'm not that poster) ... in what capacity?  You don't remember anything, and you don't have any legal experience, and you don't have the qualification (bar membership) giving you license to do anything with it.  It's like me saying "I'd like to use my high school French, but I don't remember any of it."

The JD is moot now.[/quote]

OP's logical reasoning skills sure got dusty since she got her degree 14 years ago...[/quote]
