Law Personal Statement

This civil court case takes place in a West Virginia school system located in Taylor County, when a general education high school history teacher failed to follow an IEP for Douglas Devart. During the case Devart and his parents Robert and Virginia ended up using aliases by the names of John Doe, Jane Doe and son D.D.

It is my own tenacity and passion that propelled me upward to further pursue my legal career as a personal injury attorney.While working at a personal injury law firm I have strengthen my writing, research skills and fostered a drive for perfection in my work.

To our southern border lays a land of rich culture, values, history, and beautiful scenery. Despite small truth behind the common stereotype of Mexico as a sluggish land of subsistence laborers, Mexican society is much more than that. Mexico can be depicted by the stark contrast of wealth and poverty in the country, with a small middle class stuck between the elite landowners and investors, and the multitude of urban and rural poor. Nevertheless the daily challenges faced by the developing third-world country, Mexico is still a force to be reckoned with. Mexico is one of the head political and economic forces in all Latin America.

I am fascinated by the complexity of many legal issues and this has drawn me to consider law as a career. The documentary ‘Common’ for example opened my eyes to the controversy surrounding the law of joint enterprise. I particularly enjoy watching such documentaries and following current affairs and my interest in contemporary issues led me to take Law as one of my AS subjects. I live in a rural, agricultural area and land law is an area I would like to study further and having studied Sociology for GCSE, I am also particularly interested in family law.

This past summer, I got the best experience of my life and, that was an opportunity to work with the Honorable Judge Fanon A. Rucker, and the Summer Work Experience in Law Program in Cincinnati, OH. I say this was the best experience, because, I got to experience the legal world which was amazing to me. I always wanted to work in the legal field hints why I choose to pursue bachelors in Criminal Justice. I choose to complete my 90 hour internship to graduate from college with Honorable Judge Rucker just to experience what court life was like, and I applied to the SWEL program to experience the typical day for a lawyer and to learn more about the legal field. I also had to complete my internship with Judge Rucker before June 9th and I did not get into Cincinnati, OH until May 12th so the pressure to finish in time was on.

I am not one of those individuals who realized that a career in the legal field would be their lifelong dream from the age of six or even twelve, or to be honest, after graduating high school. I have been aimless for a majority of my life, and it shows. I chose to major in biotechnology, then after a few semesters, decided to double major in literature. I then went on to become president of an academic society focused on International studies. It was not until I took the course Law and Business in my Sophomore year with Professor Jisoo Lee that I believed I could be nothing else but a lawyer. I was enthralled by what others found tedious and boring, spending every available minute reading case files and figuring out ways to, as my professor

From when I was ten until I was fifteen, I wanted to become a lawyer. I’ve always had impressive public speaking skills, a persuasive personality, and a knack for debate, so it seemed like the perfect fit for me. However, upon a taking a law class my sophomore year, I realized that lawyering might not be exactly what I expected it to be. As I learned about the different laws and the complexities of the court system I was

As stated in my personal statement, I was intuitively drawn to law as a system that requires a high level of logical and analytical skills, but my motive lies deeper in the belief that law as a powerful social factor can exert palpable impacts on the society. Throughout the course of my study, I have developed a strong interest in biotechnology and the health industry; it is my hope to pursue a legal education that will enable me to participate in and even bring changes to their regulatory systems.

Law is of fundamental importance to our country, as well as shaping our modern evolving society. I felt that doing a Law degree can be both satisfying and help society in the future by

‘What kind of lawyer do I want to be’ is a very wide question open to a whole range of interpretations. Choosing to study Law at university almost certainly means becoming either a barrister or a solicitor will be the route to follow, but this choice as well as deciding whether to practice civil or criminal law is one which requires substantial thought. Having carried out work experience at my local Crown Court, and visited the Exeter Crown Court, it has impacted how I see my future. Additionally, my independent research coupled with seminar tasks in negotiation and advocacy have also helped to shape my decision. These experiences have brought to my attention a range of ethical concerns within the courtroom, however there are two issues in particular that have stood out. The first being cross-examination of vulnerable witnesses and defendants, for example, the elderly, rape victims, and children, and the second issue being legal aid and its impact. Learning about legal aid within the legal foundations course has opened my eyes to the struggle of the ‘ordinary person’ unable to obtain legal advice, and the significant, increasing divide between city firms advising corporate clients and the ‘high street firm’ advising the everyday citizen. Both of these issues have impacted on how I see my future as a lawyer.

Today, more than ever before, the legal profession offers a unique opportunities to dedicated individual to make a significant contribution to the society. This post is aimed at help you evaluate law as a career. It should give you a clear understanding of what to expect in your educational path to a law degree and the very significant financial expenses associated with obtaining a law degree.

My personal goal is to pursue a career in law and to become a barrister in the future as I have always dreamed of myself in the court, advocating a client. The path in terms of becoming a barrister is very long and hard, involving numerous challenging steps. Firstly, I will need to complete my LLB Law degree with a minimum of 2:2 or above and pass the Bar Course Aptitude Test. Then, I will need to complete the Bar Professional Training Course (BPTC). The BPTC is a year-long course which concentrates on different core subjects such as civil and criminal advocacy. During this course, I will also need to join one of the Inns of Court and attend 12 qualifying sessions at the Inn that I have chosen. If I am successful in all the sessions, I will be called to the Bar. Henceforward, I have to start my pupillage which will take 12 months. Although it is very hard to secure a pupillage in the UK, I believe that I will be able to get one with my determination and efforts. Finally, once my pupillage is over, I will be qualified as a barrister. After becoming a barrister, I plan to continue my career in my home country Cyprus, as it is much easier to obtain a judicial work in there.
