Is NYU worth sticker if I don't want BigLaw? Forum

[pacers3177]

I'm not even a 0L, but a rising college senior. I interned at a small law firm two summers ago (one of the 3 partners was a family friend, and was doing me a favor). The firm handled pretty much everything, from family law to defense to real estate to PI, but at one point, the partner went out of his way to tell me "No matter what you end up doing, don't do matrimonial." I sat in court a couple times and watched him argue divorce cases. It was soul-shattering.

You don't want to handle divorces, bro.

Actually, I really do. And, I'm a woman, bro.

why?

Because she wants to charge someone $500/hour to get them weekend visits and the time share.

This is true. I am just so sick of people on TLS bashing the career ambitions of others.
