Top Law Schools

Ok, so I need some advice on whether I should pursue becoming an ADA. Here's the rundown of my situation:

I will be 50 (4 years from now) upon graduating law school and am concerned my age will preclude be from getting hired on.

I would like to retire at 65 and spend my retirement providing legal services to economically disadvanted people.

I currently work for the federal government (not in a legal profession) and will have a decent retirement from that at 65.

I would prefer to work at the state level but could be content working at a local level. Some of the local counties in my region hire part time ADA's which would be acceptable.

I'm currently planning on attending cooley law school. I am aware of it's reputation but I can get a 100% scholorship based on my LSAT and considering my age that is huge. Even the LRAP programs at other colleges only cover so much. Also, cook county does on campus interviews at cooley so I'm assuming that the reputation it has is less important to DA offices.


So I'm really asking if there will be a reasonable opportunity after graduation?

thanks

and no, I don't think you'll have a reasonable opportunity to do that if you attend Cooley. And if you decide to do it anyway, please attend with a full/near full non-conditional scholarship.
