LAW SCHOOLS MISREPRESENTING POST-GRADUATE SALARIES
March 31, 2012
Students Encouraged to Use LawCrossing.com to Make the Most of Opportunities March 31, 2012 — Pasadena, CA — It seems the common assumption about law school is that following the completion of school, graduates will immediately fall into a high-paying position at a law firm. However, this assumption might be based on false information perpetuated by law schools to bring in more students. In reality, law firms aren't offering as many high salaried positions as they used to, leaving many graduates out of work or forced to take much lower-paying positions than they expected. Certainly, this puts recent graduates in a position where they can't afford to pay off their student loans or get ahead. Inflated claims and false data perpetuated by law schools have put many students in a dire situation. If already in school, the best move for students to make is finish school to the best of their ability with top marks. Then, take advantage of every job search opportunity available to them.
