what type of law for me???

What type of law could someone(myself) practice with an BS in Computer/Electrical Engineering, and four years experience in IT?

What kind of law interests you? Might be patent, copyright, (intellectual property), contracting, litigation... you should find the kind of work that interests you rather than trying to find a legal practice that matches your background... you might hate the work!

Hey ppphilip,

Hopefully you've got a job by now, but with your background, you can do what I did and start a legal oriented online community. Looks like the folks at thelaw.com have done so as well. I can tell you that it's a lot more fun than billing hours.

ROFL... that's for sure. Our goal here was to build a community that would be in the pro bono vein where the input from experienced professionals could be convenient and the conversation generated highly beneficial. It is extremely gratifying too!
