[quote=Anonymous]Tuition reimbursement and the future of high-billing patent attorneys aside, I wouldn’t do it at your age and in your situation. It’s only worth it financially for you if you go into Big Law, and even in the best of circumstances, it’s an exhausting job. I started law school, with a PhD in the hard sciences, at ~31. I’ve had a good experience in big law for 10 years. BUT, I can’t imagine having the energy to grit it thru the first few years at a firm if I was the age I am now. If your were some combination of younger/miserable at your current job/very poor compensated, then maybe. [/quote]
