Based on what I hear from a buddy who is connected with Stetson Law, a local third tier law school, a large percentage of their graduates come out of school without jobs and have tough times finding one or end up being under-employed for their level of education.
That being said, a good friend who is also our real estate attorney has pointed out that in the roughly 40 years he’s been practicing, no one has ever asked him where he got his law degree, it all boils down to how good you are at your job. I’ve never asked, so I have no idea where he went to law school. Don’t care, as he kicks ass when it comes to real estate law. In fact, we had some issues with our recent home purchase that he sorted in short order. I gladly delivered an envelope full of dead presidents to him on Friday for his assistance. -D > On Dec 8, 2019, at 1:58 PM, clay via Mercedes <mercedes@okiebenz.com> wrote: > > SWMBA passed the bar in a number of jurisdictions.
