About Me

I've been a practicing attorney since 1999, and hence am both a victim and a "beneficiary" of protectionist statutes forbidding the practice of law without (a) completing and paying for seven years of higher schooling, (b) passing a bar exam, and (c) obtaining a government license. Everything I needed to know to practice law competently I learned "on-the-job" after graduating from law school and after studying for and passing the bar exam, and could have learned without the "benefit" of those costly and time-consuming barriers. Most honest lawyers would tell you the same thing. These barriers, erected to protect the financial interests of the already-credentialed, not only dissuade many from pursuing a livelihood in the work which may suit them best, but also, by raising the costs of legal counsel and precluding cheaper non-J.D. alternatives, deny to many others who cannot afford legal counsel access to justice itself.
