Career Coaching for Pre-Law Students

 

Why choose to do career coaching as a pre-law student?

This coaching program is for students who are considering law school or have already been accepted to their dream school and want to get a jumpstart.

PracticePro is here to guide you through the application process, prepare you for the first year of law school and interviews, chart your career trajectory, and help you become a successful and fulfilled lawyer.

 

Law School Admissions Coaching

Attending law school is a life-changing decision that involves considerable time and money. You should not make that decision without first seeking advice from those who have gone before you. PracticePro coaches can help you decide if law school is right for you, assist you in putting together a stellar application to get into your dream school, and help you decide between acceptance offers with your individualized career goals in mind.

Our coaching method is built on three principles:

  • Start With the End in Mind. We will brainstorm and discuss your ultimate career objectives to inform our strategy and get you to the school that is not only stellar but will best advance your personal and professional goals.
  • Incorporate Advanced Lawyering Strategies. After assessing a case’s strengths and weaknesses, great litigators weave together different pieces of evidence into a compelling story for the jury. We will optimize each individual component of your application with the same approach, using the toolbox of trial strategy and persuasion theory.
  • You Are More Than Your Grades or Scores. We 100% believe that with the right mindset and preparation, you can become an outstanding attorney and work for any type of legal employer you wish. We will help you tell a powerful story to get to the right law school and coach you to devise a long-term workaround strategy to reach your career dreams if your objective metrics are falling short of the destination right now. There are multiple ways to get where you need to go, and we will help you pursue the best path to achieve your goals!

 

First Year Preparation & Career Coaching

Each year, a large number of law students drop out after their first year of law school because they were either unprepared or unable to adapt to the new academic environment. Many who do obtain their JD discover that the practice of law is not what they expected and find themselves forced to decide between pursuing their legal career or charting a new path. If you are a first-generation law student without mentors, family, or friends to ask questions about the law school experience or what it is like to be a lawyer, it is especially challenging to adequately prepare. PracticePro career coaches have attended law school, and many are practicing lawyers. They can help you thrive in your first year and prepare you for interviews leading to internships and future employment.

Testimonial

 

Himani Nadgauda

Michigan Law, Summer 2020

“With a 3.0 from my undergraduate university, I thought getting into a top law school was completely out of my reach. With PracticePro’s help, I gained the skills to attain substantial legal experience at a prominent civil rights organization and produce a top-notch law school application. PracticePro has ultimately led to both my personal and professional growth on a scale which I wouldn’t have been able to achieve on my own. I am very thankful to be attending a top 10 law school and am confident that I have what it takes to thrive there due to what I learned from coaching.”
