... LLM, but ultimately decided a JD was the better option for ... schools give advanced standing to JD students with foreign law degrees ... trained lawyers to do the JD in two years. I know ... better job prospects with a JD.
@"sbc.mom_3x" , I agree with so much of what you're saying. I also went through paralegal training and I knew full well the entire time I wanted and needed a JD. I'm so much looking forward to our reaching these goals in our careers. Keep on keeping on.
@"Alex Divine" @westcoastbestcoast @dantlee14 Thank you guys! Knowing this, I'll just apply JD and if the opportunity comes, and it seems like something I should do, I'll think about a joint degree at a later point!
It sounds like you can get a sweet job on your experiences alone. I would apply to law schools and go to one where I get a full ride. Your experiences plus a JD will put you in a nice spot.
