Law School Recommendations?

[Pinetop]

Of course, you’re right. The law school is in Arlington. The university is headquartered near Burke in Fairfax. Very good school. Great IP program.

Check the Federalist Society. They are a Conservative/libertarian Legal Society with chapters at most good Law Schools, but some are more active than others.

Wow, thanks for all of the responses.

I live in Florida now and would like to stay in the Southeast in general, but I would be willing to go elsewhere if the opportunity was great enough.

I want to practice international law, specifically dealing with Russian relations.

For those of you who recommended Pepperdine, that is actually the one school I was looking into outside of the Southeast.

I will also look into the Federalist Society that some of you mentioned, that sounds fun.

Thanks again for all of your responses!

The University of Illinois in Champaign-Urbana is known to be conservative leaning for a state school.

I imagine you have seen the US News & World Report ranking of Law Schools. If you want to study International Law consider a School that has an exchange program with foreign schools and spend a semester or summer studying abroad.

Yes, Chapman. Sounds like a good one to me.

Don’t know much about it, but I think it was the answer to the question.

If you are going to be a lawyer, you need to be well grounded but also to have confidence in yourself. While there are some law schools with a conservative bent, don’t shy away from the others. Go to the best law school you can get into and can afford. The faculty may be liberal, bur you should be able to tell that, to compensate for it, and (selectively) to challenge it. You will get a fine education and emerge a smarter and stronger person for the experience. Good luck!!
