[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What's the motivation for law school, beyond making a high salary? Big law is not a given, becoming equity partner, ever, even less so. Not what I'd recommend if the goal is just wealth.[/quote] +1 Many firms are changing the metrics to make equity and/or de-equitizing partners if they don't meet plan. Since the kid in question is still in HS, I wonder how much they truly know about becoming a lawyer, other than thinking it seems to pay well. I assume the parents aren't in BigLaw or they'd be sharing warnings about this. Certain practice areas in a boutique setting can be quite lucrative, and a good living can be made in midlaw, but the hours requirement isn't necessarily much smaller.[/quote]
