Top Law Schools

0L here, and just had a few questions on networking.

Living in State X, going to school in State Y.

I've been lucky enough to meet quite a few attorneys in my area because of my current summer internship. One of the attorneys I met took me too lunch and gave me the contact info of some attorneys she knows where I will be attending school (she checked with them first). My question is, how and when do I reach out to these attorneys? I feel weird sending an email saying " Hey, so and so gave me your info I'm going to school near you in a month etc." I don't wanna come off as overzealous either. Just looking for a little guidance.

Thanks!

You literally email them and say what you think is stupid to say. If they don't want to answer, trust me, they won't. Otherwise, get used to feeling weird. That's what networking is.

Thanks for the reply! kinda what I was expecting, just looking for some validation.
