LA/OC job options?

Post by Anonymous User » Tue Aug 22, 2017 9:53 pm

Striking out after multiple CBs. Fuck. Well over six figures in debt and counting. Im mass mailing but what other options for amazing pay in the legal profession right after graduation exist besides big law? Any advice on smaller well paying firms? My debt is my biggest concern and I realize most people advocate for not taking out loans you're not prepared to pay back but whatever it's already happened

More information about yourself would be helpful. What school do you go to, what are your career goals, etc?

No career goals besides make money to support my family. It's the reality of being a parent. I thought taking out loans to go to school would ensure that for us. I go to a top 30 school.
