I am 46 year old ex felon , ive decided i want to be a human rights /civil rights lawyer i dont want to go to school id rather study on my own and take and pass bar exam and go from there how do i get started ,
In the near future the nature of schools is going to change. Online learning will predominate and the cost will decrease; instructors will receive more compensation based on their effectiveness. The criteria for landing employment will be whether the person can actually do the work well, and has a strong desire to do that particular job. Accreditation itself will be big business.
Well you’re pretty accurate atm
Could anyone elaborate on accreditation being big business?
and now where in the future and you were exactly right
Looks like you had a crystal ball two years ago to look through into the future....
@@AlexM-jd2ro Some things are easier to see than others!
Why can't RUclips provide full access to all law school lectures on live stream to everyone on planet earth? - TAV ♥️🇺🇸🌎👍
Probably because Law Schools charge huge prices and are not going to give it all away for nothing.
@@willchristie2650 It would be a community service to inform the citizens who paid for the State University Law Schools of what laws they are expected to obey and what the consequences could be if they disobey them. Also this would cut down on the crime, ignorance, poverty and disease rates because everyone would have something worthwhile to watch instead of the fake entertainment industry e.g. Batman, Spiderman and Superman. LOL
I am learning how to do it's on my own how to be lawyer
Yes I do have 10 or more
I am interested in moving to California and would like to learn more on the apprenticeship program. Thank you for your time and consideration.
Yeah…Mike Ross hooked me up
I am very interested. I live in So. Cal.
I currently reside in Arkansas, but I am interested in this program. It falls right in line with the ministry and enterprise that I am currently setting in place.
❤❤❤
I’m in my last year of law school and I hate it. I wish I could have taken this instead.
What are the prerequisites for qualifying to take part in the state office study program?
I am interested in the program. Is this still available?
Can you talk about where I might be able to find jobs that would contribute to my LOSP success?
I am new on there's
I am interested in studying as attorney and would love to volunteer my time? So please direct me right to the direction for some one with busy schedules.
Thanks in advance.
Thanks
Thank you for asking about volunteering! There are a lot of ways to get involved in our community. Have you checked out our Events page (www.theselc.org/events) yet?
One way I might suggest (to give you an introduction to some of our staff and some of our other volunteers, and to get a sense of the kinds of clients we assist), is to sign up as a volunteer for one of our Resilient Communities Legal Cafes (www.theselc.org/cafe) where we provide direct legal advice to walk-in (during COVID-19 zoom-in) clients who need legal advice as they work to build a more just and generative, local economy. We normally host three Legal Cafes each month in Oakland and Berkeley, and sometimes other East Bay locations, but during the pandemic, all Legal Cafes have migrated online, so hopefully you'll be able to sign up for one that fits your schedule.
You can find our Legal Cafe calendar here (www.theselc.org/cafe_calendar) and you can find out what types of legal advice we do give by clicking here (www.theselc.org/cafe-about#types). The Legal Cafe is often full (sold out) these days with clients who reserved a spot to speak with an attorney, so it's a busy place, and it's best if we know that a new volunteer is planning to attend. If you sign up to volunteer here (www.theselc.org/cafe-volunteering) then we can be prepared to meet you and introduce you to our staff and our other volunteers, and to the volunteering experience.
I hope that helps get you started!
If you're not already signed up for our newsletter, which we only send occasionally and usually based on your interests, you can sign up here (www.theselc.org/newsletter-sign-up).
Thanks again for reaching out to volunteer! If you have any questions about volunteering, please email: Tia@theselc.org. She coordinates our amazing group of Legal Cafe volunteers. We hope to meet you soon at a Legal Cafe!

how can I practice with an attorney, without practicing, in 2 months.
Hey guys. Do you have any info on this for New Yorkers?
Hi Sen - we have not compiled information on apprenticing to become a lawyer in New York. You might want to start by looking into the New York State Bar rules to see if they allow for legal apprenticing to become a lawyer in that state.
New York does require some law school. Call their State Bar and ask their requirements. Good luck!
Lord yes, ya'll read the LIGHTpaper?!?!?!!?
I am interested in your program
Hello my name is Dan and I am very interested in your program in becoming an Attorney. Years ago I studying Admin of Justice and Admin of Justice and achieved a Certificate. Unfortunately finances prohibited me from pursuing my dreams of becoming an attorney, however thanks to your RUclips video I now have new hope.
Please send me info or possibly direct me in the appropriate direction.
Thank you for your time and consideration
Hi Dan, Please email communications@theselc.org with your request for information on apprenticing to become a lawyer and what state you'd be apprenticing in and I will send you some information. Mostly we have information on doing this in California.
This is not very useful to 92% of the country, but an interesting idea.
