Sometimes I regret not going to law school.
Have had that same thought many times. The road not traveled.
yes me too but i’ve studied enough to give up. and i think you can still sit at the bar by studying on your own. but this might be old. most states probably closed that gap to ensure no common sense people apply. and law schools don’t prepare for bar exams. and there are enough legal links that you can actually read a lot of case law and in so doing see what the current opinions of the men in black dresses dictate which is the current substitute for law. I know enough and maybe more than some lawyers on basic contract and personal stuff. I paid my first lawyer $1000 for my incorporation and i had to explain to him why i needed to do it under the 1986 fed changes. my later omain concern at the time was IRS stuff why are we where we are.
I got a lexus subscription by lying about being an attorney and got an eyeful. there is an entire database called assets.
