What Can I Do with a Law Degree
and How is the Job Market?


Each year, the U.S. Department of Labor compiles a helpful book called the Occupational Outlook Handbook. Browse it for an overview of the legal profession (and related professions), trends in the current job market for lawyers, and average earnings.

The Web pages linked below also offer helpful information about job prospects after law school. These are from the Law School Admission Council (LSAC):

Fields of Law
After Law School

We recommend you do informational interviews with lawyers, to get some personal insight about law-related jobs and how to succeed in them.
