Being a lawyer love this, my utmost devotion is to the best interest of my client. A judge once told me, he has never seen a person fighting his heart out for a stranger like a lawyer do.
First off, lawyers fight for paying clients not strangers, or in the case of personal injury, clients that can award them a large return. Next, lawyers fight by misrepresenting, withholding, lying, exagerating, asking their witnesses to lie and withhold, and by falsely discrediting their opponent. It's much of what a comedian does but with much higher consequences and is much more binding. IMO, the term 'doctor and lawyer' are not synonyms. Doctors take a vow to help. Lawyer set out to hurt.
@@user-ib7wy4oq9e A good thing about social media is that a person can claim to be anyone they want to be. Also, to claim that lawyers "fight for strangers" comes from the same tray of BS that they sling in the courtroom...and to their clients.

This is to anyone who plans on studying law -it's easy but attend all classes i kid you not if you miss out one day of class you'll have to catchup on a lot. I am a first year student and it's both easy and hard you just have to stay on top of your work!
Any tips for anyone thinking about law school in general? What are things you wish you knew, And did the experience so far match your expectations? How so A curious student 😄
@@maple_latte2669 honestly if you love reading, love problem solving, politics you’ll enjoy law so much! My best advice is keep up with your readings, do the assigned work and honestly attend all your classes (and ask questions) also make friends within the degree you’re studying! Im in 3rd yr now and it gets harder but dont give up and remember why you started your journey and why you wanted to study law. Hope this helps and all the best 😊
I can not express enough how important as a client to have a lawyer who is a zealous advocate for you because if they arent you lose thank you for this
12:30 thank you. I needed to hear this, reminded to be an stronger advocate for myself at this very moment. Been fighting for my life first, for 4 years now. The battle is not the war. This legal battle is 1 more battle. I am a zealous advocate for others, even strangers. The time has come to do so for myself. Blessings.
I'm an attorney and I do credit law school with making me a better thinker. I went to a top 10 undergraduate program but law school definitely honed my critical thinking skills. On the other hand, it stifled my writing ability because lawyers are taught (with strictness) to write in a certain style. It also made me work very slowly and methodically, which results in better work but is not necessarily a good thing for people working in various non-lawyer roles.
I like this presentation it gives you a fresh prespective and behind the scenes of being a lawyer, and that they are human too and not just a magician.I too aspire to be a lawyer.
I like the point that we should be zealous advocates for ourselves-but the title of the talk suggests it will teach the viewer how to think like a lawyer. A few points skipped over quickly and then we went into autobiography where most of the talk remained. I still enjoyed it but came for the promise of the title. This would be where the negative comments are coming from generally I would guess.
I am in my second year of law school, and finding it very challenging. I came here for inspiration. I have had an eating disorder, been in a psych ward. I don't know if i am strong enough to be a lawyer. How can i make law my passion? I can't compete with others. I can just be myself, whatever in the world that is.
I’m a highschool student and am thinking of going in to Psychology or Law. But am afraid if people won’t treat me as they would treat others. I am A very short Muslim girl with social anxiety. I am interested in law but don’t have the courage be a lawyer. The reason I want to get into law is because Ive been told by many that I am good at arguing and analyzing situations. I am really interested in this profession but I’m afraid if everyone in that profession are good looking confident white people. Are there people like me?
@@laibatahir4627 There is so much power in perseverance. Your courage will grow with confidence in what you are working with. I was a tutor in college and it helped me learn to teach one on one with people, get over my social anxiety, and learn a passion for helping those struggling with problems. Best of luck to you friend.
If you are strong enough to take the LSAT, get into school, and get through your first year, then you are strong enough to graduate! It is hard, but many people do it and so can you. I know because I did it as a square peg too. You SHOULD be yourself.
How is it going for you now? are you still loving it? i’m thinking about going to law school and im not so sure about it anymore after hearing a lot of negative stuff about it.
I actually love ❤️ this guy’s character and truth behind what he is trying to express. Instead of becoming a Police Officer 👮♀️ first I should of applied for Harvard or Oxford Law degree 📜 program. Because of being told I have a learning disability and issues with taking tests. I never applied. Thank you 🙏 for sharing this knowledge.
Being a Lawyer you can protect your family, friends and loves ones specially to poor people. You can realized the importance of life because this world is not enough for us.
Family law is very lucrative. Especially divorce stuff. Those cases drag on for ages amd you can charge your client insane amounts of money. There will always be divorces and breakups so you will never lack work either.
I am not going to be a law student, but i realized that i needed to improve my thinking skills, so i ended up here. The aforementioned is also the reason why i would like to be an Ace Attorney in Attorney Online ;)
They ask you questions because they are trying to be friendly and maybe get pointed in the right direction. If you say "I don't know" they will usually be like WTF? I like to say, "all legal situations are based on the facts, the law, and understanding both sides of the argument. If you want to set up an appointment I am happy to discuss next week." What brings you to this party/dinner. Solved.
I am Grade 12 right now and next year I will going to college but I didn't know what course I want to take. I imagine my self as a Lawyer but I'm not good in English, I am not good in memories so the people around me told me to find some courses that suit me, but I don't like any courses. That's very prostrate me.
I think it was more like be kind to yourself. He told the story of the family court and noticing the parents not being kind to themselves.that was the backdrop. so I think his tone was right. just my view
10:20 onwards: "I was sort of like Wile E. Coyote chasing the Road Runner, And I was going so fast from goal to goal, step to step, At the time I started doing what I wanted to do, and what was the end goal all the time, I was a mile off the edge of the cliff."

i've had the exact same dilema before starting law school. I chose law now but if i manage to handle it properly, i wanna implement business too from next year. It takes dedication but you can do both if you want!
“I’d have to think about that…i cant recall at the moment…it may be…i couldn’t be sure…im not entirely sure i understand….it’s possible but i cant be sure…..”
You are honest and say: "I'm a lawyer" and then the conversation changes, eyes light up, and they start talking and you say, no longer honest: "I've never been in court, I only do wills and trusts and maybe corporate contracts." "Oh. Sorry. So how about those Patriots" and we're back on track!
I’d like to be a judge, but no funds. So much education, but no job. I won’t give up hope. Just don’t start yelling at others, lawyers. Stay calm, listen and let down your egos.
Same. He only talks about thinking like a lawyer for 2 seconds then proceeds to discuss his entire life story like we haven't heard the same thing over and over. Truly a lawyer's speech.
Um a second year law student.its reallyyyyyy awesome being a law student. But tbh sometimes i feel soo annoyed when i go out to the public/ societty .thats because as a law student.. i see so many illegal things than an ordinary person does.....and i just have to keep quiet and stay like thats non of my business since the society accepts those behaviors directly or indirectly even though the law is against them...( ex- smoking in public places is prohibited ..but people smoke) ....
Most lawyers collude and are after the money. Your outcome is already set in stone until you pay your lawyer on contingency and upppsssss .Never pay a lawyer on an hourly rate of you will be there for years getting your money.😢😢😢😢
I am to take the BAR this 2020 if God be willing. But until now, I am still convincing myself that I want to become a lawyer and that it is God's will that I will become a lawyer. Still looking for reasons why should I do this....

How do you explain what is critical thinking to a ten year old?
Issue rule analysis conclusion - avoid emotional reactions - see both sides - infer rules from patterns - compare situations using analogies

Being a Lawyer you can protect your family, friends and loves ones specially to poor people. You can realized the importance of life because this world is not enough for us.
What's the important thing about life that lawyers know?
He does family law work! I have respect for him cuz it's meaningful but not lucrative.
Its lucrative. Depending on what family issues we practice, and what jurisdiction we practice.

Practice of zeal and thinking like a lawyer are two different things.
why
Zeal can be applied to everything including profession. Thinking like a lawyer does. It necessarily applies to every profession.
