Lol when she said "I cannot afford my services" I like how real they were
kae confuses me because she helps people who are trying to avoid eviction. If people are getting evicted they probably can’t afford to live where they are. I think I filed eviction on 5 people in the last year. There was no way for them to win in court. To be fair our lawyer was da bomb and he wouldn’t let us file unless our paperwork was in order. He would send it back and say fix this or else they could have a case for not having the paperwork correct
Woodshadow A
They comment that there's so much hatred and ask "why?" -- that's why! Most people that need their services can't afford one.
Surely there could be cases of illegal eviction?
Woodshadow I think she is a lawyer in SF, which has the craziest pro Tenant laws. They can only increase my rent 0.8 percent. My neighbor pays 900 a month, when it should be 4200 according to the market.
If these girls had a youtube channel i would watch every video
SAME
Erin sameeeee
They can probably make more money 💰

*they should make more of these like with nurses and doctors*
what is with the bolded comments nowadays how do you do it?
Put * at the beginning and end
kim namjoon yes, I agree (army!!)
i would love to be on that one lol
*bold*
"Lawyers dont like math" okay sign me up, I've found my brand of people-
Yangzom hate to tell you but half of what they said is wrong lol. The most obvious was when they asked about majors and said English business or math. Wtf political science or psychology mate. I really don’t think these girls are lawyers
David Sawyer there is a wide range of majors that lawyers have in undergrad. I’ve seen that there are even some music majors that end up in law school and do extremely well. You can pretty much major in anything you want as long as you can get good grades. The majority of law schools you apply to don’t really care what your major was. They mostly care about the grades you got and whether they believe you are disciplined enough for their program. Just like any stereotype, there are people who break that norm. Some lawyers like math, some don’t. I think your time would be better spent focusing on yourself rather than focusing on the lives of others and whether or not this TH-cam video is credible or not. It isn’t going to affect your life either way.
Luke respectfully, I’m going to have to disagree. I am a law student at Columbia university in NYC so I do feel I have some credibility here. There are some outliers, you are correct in that however, I would say about 70-80% of people are political science or psychology majors and here is why. If you are a music major you have not taken the prerequisites to begin taking the 2000 classes. (2000 classes are grad school classes which usually require quite a few prerequisites) I am not sure where you got your info but unfortunately it isn’t quite right.
@@davidsawyer3737 you sure they lying?? Because I also have classmates from different academic major backgrounds as well. It does matter which major you have, but only to a certain certain extent. 🤷🤷
@@davidsawyer3737 she literally said a lot of people major in those, which obviously means not all people AND she also said that you can major in anything you want it doesn’t matter which really concerns me since you’re a law student and trying to make a claim like that without looking at what the video actually entails
This humanized lawyers for me 😂
War is peace. Freedom is slavery. Ignorance is strenght.
IKR
Nemesis ! Omg I just read this book
@Faxery Herx
Nice! :)
Same at least these
When do lawyers use math?
When they give you your bill
Ryan C not Saul Goodman he is not just a lawyer but a friend
Ryan C and calculating interest on bills 😋. Also child support.
Ryan C x
S V lol Cx
Lol
I just learned that this job is stressful, they don’t make that much and there is a lot of hate in general. What are the pros 😂😂
If you're really good, it's the opposite of all that. Except it's still stressful.
it all depends on the type of lawyer
Average Consumer did u not listen to the video!!!! They say it themselves, they are in debt and don’t make a lot. I would say do your research but it should have been done for you if you had just listened 😒😒
Cody Whitlock I don't think it's that they dont make money I just think that the money that they do make goes to debt they have... therefore they aren't loaded like you would expect them to be
Cody Whitlock they are in debt because of student loans most likely
Can you do a video where surgeons answer commonly googled questions about surgeons?
Yes!
THAT WOULD BE AWESOME!
Faith Carolyne yes !!!
Yesssssssss!!
YESSSS
"Lawyers don't like Math, that's why we're lawyers"
Yas gurl I feel you on a spiritual level 🖤
Joice Balicog fr Lmao I cant stand math
I appreciate how they represented women in a stereotypically male dominated field
Faith Elizabeth jiji!
Tons of highly successful female lawyers.
That’s not even true. It’s majority male but far from male dominated. What you see on tv is not reality.
In my province (I live in Canada), the amount of female lawyers is slightly higher than that of male lawyers (with 50.4% of lawyers being women and 49.6% being men) and statistics show that the field is increasingly becoming a majority female field in my province. It is nice to show women in fields like this, but can we not act as though it's something out of ordinary? No one would make a comment like this one if this was a video about teachers, or nurses. Like law isn't actually a male dominated field as it's made out to be and like others said there are tons of successful female lawyers.
And tbh I would've preferred if the video also had male lawyers in there, just to have a different viewpoint or answers to the question...
Faith Elizabeth There are many high-ranking female attorneys. Aflac, Diageo, American Express, and even Lockheed Martin all have female GC (general counsel).
It's really quite amazing how the profession has changed for women.
When she said ...Nah homie. .I died
Hahaha I caught that too.
They're both so pretty. Omg....but yessss....WE lawyers do not like math, lol.
Jenny Oyster well yeah but not when ur in the corporate or tax law fields...coz then math has to be on point 😉
Surge Juice I know I’m not a lawyer, YET. But I consider myself to be one ( my future ) just to put it out in the universe. You don’t have to tell me what I am and what I’m not ✌🏾✌🏾. Good day.
Rowhan Celti oh yeah....you’re right about that, lol.
Juris non calculat
@@jennyoyster5054 they are jealous think like a lawyer and you will reach your goal.
“Lawyers don’t like math” the perfect job for me lol
Yeah but you gotta get your arguing skills which is just as hard as math
"Lawyers don't like math that's why we're lawyers" I felt this lol
I will say this: I work for lawyers. What these ladies have said, COMPLETELY ACCURATE. Including that lawyers hate math!
alaras who doesn’t thoogh
@@Lindsaysosa some freaks like math and statistics majors..just kidding peace my math homieessss
Oh yeah we are lawyers because we are bad at math.
Im a law student and I hate maths.. My brother, (a med student) loves math.😭So, yeah!
That is also why you are gonna see a lot of women lawyers cause well women hate math 😁😁😁😁
Yasss my Latina lawyers!!!!!
BETSY 🤢
BETSY they can’t stop you from being deported
Your A Wizard Harry unless she's a citizen.
Your A Wizard Harry don’t start there. It won’t end well. Also what the frick dude. That’s terrible.
Why does it matter if they are latina or not?
Legally blonde has lied to me
but seriously though i love these two women so much can i get ten thousand videos of just them making jokes and being wonderfully charming thanks
My grandpa was lawyer (there's an award made in his honor, actually), and he died when I was very young. However, I do remember him, and one of the long-standing impressions he left on me was to be compassionate. He was actually a proponent of lowering the cost of legal fees, believing they were too high. He would often take on cases in barter or labor when money was an issue. (He was able to install a modest pool in his backyard by taking cases of people willing to help him build it.) All in all, I've been lucky enough to see lawyers are humans too, with personalities and needs and beliefs beyond 'money', but I wonder what my view would have been if I hadn't been lucky enough to have a grandpa in the field. Media is a powerful thing, and you never hear about the lawyers doing pro bono, reduced cost, or other low cost practice because that news doesn't sell.
It sounds like your grandfather was a great man.
Lawyers don't lie, they omit and just don't mention stuff
lmao cause they’re young they don’t get that much money yet
Actually, a lot of customers of them, can't really afford the service. My mother is a Lawyer, and my family never has been rich, well payed jobs as lawyer and doctor are just stereotypes. A lot of times she isn't even payed for her work .-.
+Gengu Not every doctor is rich.
If you went to a good law school and did well you can make like 160k right out of law school.
It still depends on what they have pursued with their law degrees. If they specialize in corporate law, they'll eventually make a lot of money. If they specialize in disability law and join nonprofits, they're probably not going to make much.
facts
Still can’t get over the girl with glasses she’s so damn beautiful
The girl without glasses is stunning though
Bro I've spent the last hour trying to find her @
Pengwin @teenmachine56
@@itzelcastaneda3419 you a blessing
She wont pay attention to you tho, you're not attractive enough
how much money you make as a lawyer depends on what kind of lawyer you are. she's a lawyer that helps people facing evictions, so her clients probably can't pay that much money. on the other hand, a corporate lawyer would probably make much more. but still, you shouldn't choose your job based on the salary
These are the lawyers I want to defend me
That doesn’t sound like a good idea.
hate to tell you but half of what they said is wrong lol. The most obvious was when they asked about majors and said English business or math. Wtf political science or psychology mate. I really don’t think these girls are lawyers
David Sawyer people often don’t say political science or psychology, but will suggest English, math, business, science because if you then decide you don’t want to be a lawyer you can at least leave and still get a good job, while going political science is almost going all in to law school which adds unnecessary pressure and stress.
@@davidsawyer3737man political science and psychology is really close to law so yeah
And many law students tend to major in psychology or criminology and all
David Sawyer you’d study political science or psychology if you were like 100% i wanna be a lawyer but if all else fails at least you can still get a decent job if you study something like english or math
This kinda puts me off of wanting to be one...
It shouldn't. Plese don't let it affect your thinking towards this profession. Everyone has their own experiences and you won't really know what it's really like until you tried it. I know they told the truth but just because they experienced that doesn't mean you're going to take their steps one by one, they also said they DON'T hate their jobs so that's good as long as they like what they're doing that a that matters. So I'll say this, if it is what you want to do then go ahead and do it. Good luck. :)
Same!! I’m so scared to actually become one now
Someone Not Special same but it’s something I really want so I’m going to struggle through it !
Literally every job on the planet can be stressful or difficult at times.
Someone Not Special don’t. Buzzfeed just got low class lawyers who went to a trash school.
I want other jobs do this . This is my list :
1. Programmer
2. Business person
3. Doctor
4. Teacher
5. Pilot
6. Designer
7. Engineer
8. Philosopher
9. Librarian
Real estate investment. Best to make money.
Better start following Johnny Sins😂
KidCity Lynnwood business makes more money especially if you get it to IPO.
I've been a "librarian" (two-year interim) and now I am an "engineer" (project engineer). Ask me anything 😛
Architects
This is a nice series and somewhat helpful for people who want answers to certain questions before picking a career path. Please do more :D
I loved watching this my whole family are lawyers. Even though it’s not my future job it is so nice seeing lawyers in this light. This is exactly how I saw lawyers through my dad and my family. Thank you.
I love them they're so honest and real also wow so pretty 💛💛. Well done girls, Thank you.
I’d love to see this with more criminal justice related careers.
I love these lawyers. Please do more videos of this sorts but make sure to find interesting and fun people for the role!
They picked the most beautiful Lawyers😮😻
Tim Xman I know, they look like NFL cheerleaders.
one of the best googled question videos I have ever seen.
I HOPE they make this a series!👌
2:36 when she said “Nah homie” it sent me 😭💀
When the girl on the left said:
I HATE MATH
Me be like:
Same sis, same
"Lawyers hate math." 😂 My husband is a tax lawyer, which requires a little math, and his classmates were freaking out about it.
I hate math
Lawyers are people too! In my areas of practice, family law and criminal law, most people cannot afford lawyers. I always try to help people out and give them information that will help them navigate the legal system.
"Why do lawyers drink so much?" HAHAHA ME 😂😂
These girls are really nice! They're funny,they keep it real and they make you feel so comfortable. Keep them please!🙏❤
“Counting to ten today was a struggle”
I felt that😌
Bruh the girl on the right is really hot wtf
Butt Cork you have low standards. One man's trash another man's treasure I suppose
Tennessee Weeks just cus u dont agree doesnt mean his standards are low
Find her name lol
Butt Cork same
Tennessee Weeks you must be gay
This gave me a whole new perspective on the law field; thanks for that!
Love these lawyer videos
I want to be a lawyer so I enjoy these videos! Especially the law school horror stories! 😂
I think there is a really good reason why lawyers have that negative reputation. In my opinion really good lawyers probably tend to develop some sociopathic tendencies. I was in a fairly serious car crash and had to deal with a lawyer from a well known law firm that hired by the insurance company for a deposition. He said incredibly awful things to me, yelled at me and basically called me a liar. Afterwards he came up to me and said he believed me, that he thought I was a good person and hoped I got a good settlement and then shook my hand. It was like talking to two completely different people. I got the same feeling about my lawyer as well. I think these two lawyers are fairly new and would like to hear from them a few years from now when they get more experience.
MAKE THIS A SERIES
I love these lawyers they seem like so much fun
Why are these lawyers sooo hot?
They obviously wanted more dudes to watch this video so.
Ranel Gallardo Not everything is about what dudes want 😂
"I've known Dayna for a while now and she is a dedicated and incredibly hard-working individual. I would recommend her (and the other two attorneys that work in the San Jose branch) to anyone that wants to be taken care of and helped with a passion that is hard to find elsewhere. Highly recommend!"
These 2 need their own youtube channel pronto! They speak and interact really well.
More of these two please
damn, she got a boyfriend 😭😭
Well duh. She is a catch and a half
^ you have issues
tree bear didn't get any last night from the random girl you worshipped
^ yes you definitely have issues lmao
tree bear and you're definitely a beta lmao
I want to become a lawyer because I'm obsessed with U.S history, laws and helping people. But I also am in love with math, science, and engineering, specifically math.
You have so much power in you. Please, keep that passion burning because we, adults, are depressed and apathy is starting to swallow us. It gets real hard to be motivated at what you do and what you loved doing :(
@@bamboozled8779 I will keep that passion :) thx
please make more of these!
Thanks Buzzfeed for uploading these lawyer videos as I apply to law school. This tooootally doesn't make me regret my life long dream lol
"We don't really say 'objection' that much."
Phoenix Wright: OBJECTION!
OBJECTION TO YOUR OBJECTION!
Need the @ for the red shirt Asap
Alphinite fr

“I wanted to be a forever student” lol girl same
I hate math and I can’t wait until I can be a lawyer.
Y'all need to make this a series fo shoooo
Please do this video but with doctors!! Very interesting and helpful👌🏼
"On my salary, I cannot afford my services" damn!
I want to be a lawyer when I grow up so this helped alot Thanks!
I really like these ! Do more with other careers (: !
Where’s y’all TH-cam page at. You two are so awesome and representational for so many communities. Hope it happens, fingers crossed 🤞🏾
Well, debt-wise, I can't relate... because in European Universities, there's no such thing as expensive tuitions. Sorry, America
england is £9250 per year lol
£10,000 a year is cheap if compared to 50-60 thousand american dollars they pay a year
Matty in comparison sure, but it’s still not cheap + there are many american colleges around the same ballpark
Thanks for including that nonessential information.
In Canada, a lot of uni's and colleges are less than 10 000$ a year. Not including dorms or food plans (I'm paying upwards to 18 000 personally a year) but I was considering going to school in the States and looked at tuition. I was not doing that lol.
0:46 okay annalise keating
This video helped me more than all the law vids on TH-cam
Plz do more videos with them they seem so chill
htgawm is so goooodddddd
In Portugal we call them doctor. When I was little I asked my dad why did people called him doctor (like what did he treat) and he was like "because I treat papers"
I love these law school/lawyer videos
bring them back! I love what they have to say :)
I wish my lawyers looked like them
"Wants to be a forever student" 100% has 150k in student debt and trying to defer that stuff
Love theses types of videos. I’m actually interested of becoming a lawyer, but idk cause the hole college situation is a lot of money, and I know I’m probably never going to get a socolor-ship. I’m actually very interested about the “criminal justice lawyer”.
“Lawyers don’t like math” soooo true! I’m steering clear of Probate completely because of this 😂🙈
My father is a LAWYER and he’s brilliant at maths.He said that in school MATH was his strongest subject.So it all depends on the person
Okay but like I really wanted to learn more about what law school they went to and how they’re experience was at it overall (unbiased-ish)
☆JPJourney✌ it is hell, you’re welcome
They did a previous video about their experience on law school. Check the buzfeed channel.
Lorena Flores Agüero I saw but I wanted the specifics on which law school they went to and I feel like “what’s the best law school” [in your opinion] is a more googled thing
patricia semedo So I’ve heard/had a taste of...
I love, love the lawyer in the red, such great personality.
Thanks for your answers.
Objecting a lot or a little depends on the area of practice. Some lawyers rarely go to court, while others may be in court several times a week. If you fall into the latter category, you'll have plenty of opportunities to object.
I’ll take Tina if I get caught robbing the bank because I never do anything bad.....
More videos with these ladies, their personalities are dope!
please continue this series of lawyers
Tina actually reminds me of Rachel Zane (Megan Markle from Suits) 😂
Can confirm. Lawyer and I despise Maths.
i love how well spoken they are. not once in this video did i hear “um” or “uh”. you can tell that they know what they want to say before they say it and i find that really cool!
I'm majoring in Criminal Justice and minoring in Sociology!!! Hearing this made me so happy!!! Love this series!
How has university been for you?? Really want to know.
SAN FRANSISCO HOMIES WERE U AT?!?!?!
Imma get my landlord to evict me so I can hire the right girl... tooo peng
Loving these lawyer videos. Currently in law school. Currently not enjoying it
Love this vid. I work with all kinds of lawyers and that stereotype of them being hard-hearted, ultra serious people you don't wanna mess with is so false. Like yeah, you might meet SOME attorneys like that, but nearly every lawyer I've ever spoken to really cares about what they're doing and what happens to their clients
Oh, and not all of them are in it for the money. It's just something they're passionate about doing.
Well, Tina is gorgeous. Damn.
When u have no life and watch a buzzfeed video the minute it comes it 😐😐
love this series, and I love that it features young WOC! it's so great to hear their perspective
I like this series keep it buzzfeed pleaseeeeee!!!
