Family Life
My plan is to hopefully be accepted into the part-time night program
at Denver University for Fall 2013!
I have a child who is currently 1 and I am not married but I do have parents and family that would be more than willing to help me out. I would also need to continue working full-time during the day at a law firm.
Has anyone else been able to go to law school part-time, work full-time and be able to be a good parent and spend time with their children? I would like any advise or stories from law school parents.

Re: Family Life
Totally possible. I have several children, attend a T1 full time trad. program and am graduating early. When you are a parent you learn to schedule your time so well that you learn to be very efficient in law school. Some of the late nights have been a challenge, but if you are doing an evening program and your parents can help out, you should be fine. PM me if you want any further advice!

Re: Family Life
I work full time, am in a PT/Evening program and have kids. It's not easy, but it's do-able. PM me for specifics.

Re: Family Life
I've done it as well, but had to make some major sacrifices.
