Ainsley McTree posted:If you really truly are a poor radical environmental activist and all you want to do is...whatever the gently caress it is you think you want to do as a lawyer, Northeastern really truly is the school for you, because it is chock full of radical [insert your cause here] activists and you will be among friends if you go there. And with a 170/4.0 you can get a nasty scholarship, especially if you have a demonstrable interest in a public interest job. A friend of mine had a full scholarship with the condition that she had to satisfy certain public interest requirements. I never really pressed her on what those requirements were, but she was happy to do it, she was an immigrant who wanted to immigration law (and she is, so good for her I'm not jealous) so things worked out for her. Northeastern's a great school to go to so long as you're annoyingly passionate about public interest and you don't mind/don't know about the massive risk of failure I went on some dates with a Northeastern graduate who eventually went to Paul Weiss and then quit to become a teacher. This picture of the school is accurate, according to her. She was horrified when I told her about how one of my classmates asked Justice Thomas point blank "when are we going to get rid of all the babykillers?" nm posted:Yes it is.

How can I spin my criminal/regulatory experience and course load in a way that won't get me laughed out of there? It doesn't help that my school offers next to no classes in that field. This is your cover letter: Dear Hiring Partner: We have fed our sea for a thousand years And she calls us, still unfed, Though there's never a wave of all her waves But marks our English dead: We have strawed our best to the weed's unrest, To the shark and the sheering gull.

Ainsley McTree posted:Screw that, just give him ERISA. Or maybe the bankruptcy code I like the code tags around the bankruptcy code. You should add a hypo to make it more fun. Here: A goes bankrupt. Before A declares bankruptcy, B agrees to provide A with a loan. After A goes bankrupt, B provides the loan and seeks retroactive approval of the loan from the court. The court denies B. After A declares, C, with the approval of the court, loans A money. Before and during the period of A's bankruptcy, D continues to provide A with the widgets A needs to operate A's business and A pays D using B and C's money. The court appoints a trustee and the trustee decides that C will get paid .80 on the dollar and B will get paid .20 on the dollar. B and C sue D to get back the money that A paid D. What result? Address the impact of Sec. 544 on the result. How would the result have been different if B's loan was secured by A's property? How would that result differ if the property securing B's loan was an aircraft? Linguica posted:A lawyer who knows that another lawyer has committed a violation of the Rules of Professional Conduct that raises a substantial question as to that lawyer's honesty, trustworthiness or fitness as a lawyer in other respects, shall inform the appropriate professional authority. This is a good example of an ethical violation that is virtually impossible to enforce.

Hey, I'm going to a slightly higher rated school than you in a much less saturated region than you for probably under half what you are going to school for. I am in the top 25% of my class and I've been toying with the idea of dropping out ever since getting this semester's grades. Fordham is a trap. Flee now.

My cousin just graduated out of Fordham after doing her undergrad at Harvard. 1L International Law Panda internship, got passed up at 2L OCI, and has no law-related prospects. I could maybe argue for a T1 school if it were a state school (with in-state tuition) in a relatively non-saturated market, provided it was someone who met all of the other standards for "should you go to law school?". Maybe. But hey, Fordham has Fashion Law!

I don't see where people are getting that Remedial is scamming people in real life. There's links all over the NH bar website about this case. The New Hampshire bar apparently backs Dargon and other real estate attorneys from oversight from the Banking Department and apparently a Superior Court judge agrees. The NH Banking Commissioner is being removed by the governor and executive council for incompetence. The law looks really, really poorly worded and poorly thought out, too. Even the ABA thinks the law is dumb and overbroad. There's even a chronology of what happened that makes it sound like everybody was surprised by what the Banking Department did: quote:Bar News - June 18, 2010 tl;dr a guy steals video game money and that makes him a real life criminal mastermind who apparently got 10 other lawyers to go along with him???

Can you prove you're not Dan Dargon? You could be someone working in the same field but the evidence is very compelling. I have a law firm and brokerage in Connecticut. I have an extensive background in bankruptcy law and mortgage work. I even posted an "ask me about bankruptcies" thread forever ago. I've been following SAFE Act legislation for quite awhile because it may impact bankruptcy reaffirmation agreements and because of the originator/broker requirements it imposes on employees. Really, anybody who works in the real estate field in New England and follows the news knows about this now. Frankly, I think it's funny that somebody stole a bunch of money from MMO goons and it made them so mad that they're chasing shadows on the internet years later. Do goons do this to people who stole from other guilds in MMO games? What the gently caress does Remedial-esque even mean? Hahahaha
