Ever consider it? Going back to get a JD, I mean. I was 51 when I started law school.

It was hard, and I thought I would die before I got out. I had surgery twice, my cat died, I moved, my car quit. There just seemed to be no end to problems that wouldn't have been much of a deal taking care of if not for the academic load.
Of course, there are always those who tell you that you are crazy for doing it.
Did you know that most who go to law school never practice as attorneys. Many are doctors, nurses, business people who just want to be better at what they do.
Interested? Any questions? I'll be glad to fill you in on what it takes.

Rural Americans are increasingly without lawyers even as law school graduates are increasingly without jobs. Just 2 percent of small law practices are in rural areas, where nearly a fifth of the country lives, recent data show.
