I have been blind since birth, and have been an attorney for 32 years.  In
short, if the student is interested in becoming a lawyer, he or she must
really want it.  There are significant time demands both in law school and
in practice.  However, practicing today is much easier than it was so years
ago.  Accessible technology has made a major difference.  If your student
would like to email or call me privately, I would be very happy to discuss
this subject further.

Ann,

My name is Ron Milliman; you have probably seen me around on the JFW list
from time to time.  I am a professor here at Western Kentucky University
and have a young blind fellow that is trying to decide what he wants to
pursue as a career.  He has sought my advice as to whether he should go to
law school or go into a graduate program in pursuit of his MBA and Ph.D.
degrees with the objective of following somewhat in my footsteps.

I am inquiring as to what area of the law have you tended to specialize in?
 Please post back and share with me some of your experiences as a blind
lawyer, good and bad.  Do you have any advice for this young man I am
attempting to guide?

Ron
