Everything about being an attorney sounds great EXCEPT those student loans!
Lol I disagree, I would have been paid mine off I was just stupid. Lol
Here in Germany I can go to college for free
This video is so real and not sugar coated. He gets straight to the point. Money is probably the main reason why I wanna study law, I am not a good test taker and I am okay in time management. I feel like I am facing reality here and am giving my career choice a second thought. Thanks for the video!
Best of luck to you - whatever career path you take.
You can always train for any test. There’s nothing impossible in this word we live in. Recently, I came across a post in LinkedIn of a man, who graduated fromlaw school in his 50s while having both of his children in college (obviously paying for them, too). And he made it. Moreover, he managed to work during his time in LS. Everything’s possible if you really want it.
Look into paralegal
@@MrArtVein what are some pros that make you say so?
This attorney doesn't regret it.
I see you - th-cam.com/video/XLBCmMwXvsE/w-d-xo.html
how's your practice going?
@@dustinhornsby9729 not a solo practitioner, I'm an attorney for the feds and I enjoy my work brother. So I am blessed.
Thank you for the insight Uncle Jeremy. Lots of things to think about when choosing your career path.
This is your best and most informative video yet. Your producer is crushing it.
Excellent info Uncle Jeremy!
Seems like starting out as a paralegal might be a way to get paid and check-out the lawyer life,
before deciding whether or not to commit to law school.
This is great! Love the dad jokes. 😂
Thanks for the information! I’m glad you mentioned student loans. That’s something people don’t think about.
Great presentation and info. Thanks, Uncle Jeremy!
My pleasure - always fun.
Good tips. Thank you!
I'm impressed. Informative and funny.
Every person who is thinking about becoming an attorney should watch this video.
Good practical advice.
70s rock is the best music!
Thank you this was so helpful and made me feel a lot more confident since I want to be a lawyer but wasn’t sure If I’m the right sort of person :)
Best of luck to you - whatever you decide!
so did you ever take steps to become a lawyer?
I was one of those parents who continued to watch even though this isn’t aimed at me and enjoyed thoroughly! Great advice!
Thanks for this video.
Thanks uncle J
I’m considering planning to go to law school in the future, after I graduate with my bachelors. I’ve given up on some of those far fetched childhood dreams, but being a lawyer is something I would bet a lot of time and money that I could accomplish if I decided to do it. The fact that it’s achievable, worth doing, and is a highly respected occupation makes me enjoy fantasizing about it in the future. Telling my parents I got into law school, passed the bar, and graduated law school would be kind of an unbeatable dream at this point in my life. Aside from that, I’ve always been a person who likes helping people, I love debating, and I am good with words. I’m not a numbers and math guy. But give me a point to argue, and I’ll go at it for hours. I think that I would greatly enjoy the competition aspect of presenting a case against another lawyer, especially if the stakes are high and the payoff is helping a client. The only thing that I can see turning me away from it is if the job ended up feeling boring and repetitive with all the paperwork. The strategizing and arguing in court, that would be the fun part
I want to see you in more TikTok videos.
Great video!
This was pretty helpful! From a youngin :)
I can check off all those boxes and still wouldn’t be my first career but now idk - both my parents told me I would be good just bc I “like to argue” 😅😅
Being a lawyer can be very rewarding.
This lawyer agrees
This dude is great
I'm in my 40's and I always wanted to be a lawyer . Your channel has inspired me to possibly look into getting back into it. Is it possible to be a lawyer without becoming a member of the Bar ? Probably a dumb question, but some people are allowed to represent themselves in court , or file a lawsuit against someone, how does that work? I want to help people who have been scammed or ripped off . I want to give lawyers a good name; like you are doing!
That's awesome man. Keep it up 🙂
It’s never too late!! The only limits you have are the ones you make you got this
you have to pass the bar to practice law in any city you're in
Lawyers cannot represents people
Attorneys (members of bars) can
It was so funny when he said “ which I do it in TH-cam for free”. Thx
Thank you Uncle Jeremy. Looks like I chose the right career!!
how's your practice going?
@@dustinhornsby9729 It isn't. I would be a horrible lawyer!
@@ppatrickhogan okay I see what you were saying now haha
Uncle Jeremy.. though I'm sure you are younger than I am .. YOU are the BEST!!! I thought I was only in love with you for your XRP vids, but you shine through even giving career advice!!! Oh and thank you .. glad i didn't go into law! I would not have made it! I don't like people!
Oh yeh... I could not represent a republican!
I cheated because I am over 30 but good information for my next life.
Fun fact about long term debt or especially student loans. Just get the monthly payments down as much as possible, think of it as simply another monthly bill til you die. So what if you pay it off in 30 years when your 50. You'll have lost all the money you could've invested to that, and now you're too old to enjoy your money and only have maybe another 10-20 years as a lawyer to make more money. Haggle the monthly payments down.
the thing about becoming an anesthesiologist is silly; med students accrue significant debt possibly more than law school and then have to go through residency on very low pay. anesthesiology is a 4 year residency making possibly only 50k w/ 2-400k in debt.
it was literally a joke
awesome
wow EMPATHY i didnt see that one coming !
It also requires a fascination for other-peoples-problems. - I would take a seat in the gallery for a few mundane cases, if you're still inspired - see a phycologist
Do you think I can become better at time management? I’m good with everything else, but I’ve procrastinated a lot before, everything always gets done, but sometimes I burnout. Can I get better at it and be a successful lawyer?
Of course you can! I always tell my kids to recognize weaknesses and figure out a system to improve.
@@LegalBriefs thank you so much!
I can attest he knows what he is talking about. :)
Would you be willing to say this under oath? ;-)
The only reason to hire an attorney is for pleading and procedure.
I love helping people, but am terrible at school...
I am 25 my father always told me I should be a lawyer, and I have a bachelors degree in criminal justice I am currently working at a factory and will soon be making 75 000 to 100,000 with overtime should I try to become a lawyer and leave my job its a tough decision my wife's makes more money than I do so I do have some financial freedom
That bar behind him?
Super good video and very funny 😂😂🙂
I’m 31 and considering it after my recent dui case.
I don't want to go to law school.
y
@@zahararosadino-benson5307 becuase law sucks plain and simple. Soul sucking job with a guarantee of misery. No thanks
i thought understanding empathy and having empathy are two different things as a lawyer?
I’ve been binge watching Suits...
10 seasons!?
@@LegalBriefs me too)
But but but I'm old and want to be a lawyer. Why did I get shooed away lol
Lol. Sorry!
Your going to be paying up to $30k a year for 30 years on $150k loan? I think your getting burned
have you ever been robbed at gunpoint working as a cashier?
👏👏👏👏
Who buttons their shirt up all the way and doesn't wear a tie? Don't trust him..
What about CDTA?
Yes! Empathy! No one mentions this.
Yet so important! Thanks for watching.
im 15 and considering law.....
2 years later.... how are you doing?
Man, I was thinking of being a lawyer but those student loans tho!!
So what? Lawyers are paid more that any average jobs out there as well as medical doctors and as he mentioned, anaesthesiologists. If that’s what you truly want, go for it! It’ll be worth it
@@mirnaia98 actually he said if you want to get THAT high money, then you’d be better off as an anesthesiologist 😅
I guess if your a lawyer your life is just gone. Your life is work at that point. No hobbies no nothing 😅
Nice man.....real good, label people and say it's only good if younger people want to take law. ...real classy
Sounds great until you see your student loan debt
It's not that bad my income is 💪🏾
Why don't you get me five minutes to explain to you about passionate people of the existence of humanity? Because it will find you suitable to listen to people from the street the people that you very well represent everyday for-profit? Yes sir or no sir? Yes sir or no ⁉️⁉️⁉️⁉️⁉️
Wanna be a layer.
Im bilingual. I want to become an immigration lawyer. Does being bilingual give me any sort of advantages
Absolutely.
“i put people to sleep on youtube for free” LOL
Were you ever forced to break the law?
Your friend failed the bar 9 years ?
The republican joke got you an immediate follow
If been a lawyer for 18 years. It’s a miserable career. Don’t do it.
We graduated around the same time. What type of law do you do?
Video starts at 1:10
Coming from a Republican, this video is funny and great
This was actually a really helpful video. I decided I won't be a Lawyer, I think that's a good thing for me and for everyone tbh.
On a side note I don't know anything about 70's rock. Give me a song please
14 hours a day doing what?
"or even worse, a republican" LMAO
I really enjoyed your video up until you said something about representing republicans... this is the issue with America.... Why is a republican a bad person.???
Everything about this video is nice except that annoying background music
I love the video but the republican joke really got me like damn you tried to put Republicans up there with child rapist I'm more a liberaterian, but hearing the republican joke really made me be like damn. I wouldn't refer to hard core liberals in the same light as child rapists... I get it was a joke so great video man I appreciate it
Great video, I am positive I want to be an attorney now... but c'mon man why make fun of us Republicans like that ;(
Empathy? What a joke 😂😂🤣🤣
You're hilarious
For a democrat 😂
Republican🤣🤣
I refuse to represent democrats and it has increased my bottom line because I now onlu represent respectable people who have morals and pay their bills.the most important thing is to not represent people who want free rides, are entitled, or who miles chikdren. This means you MUST NOT represent democrats.
