Me = (For profit or for purpose): For profit. (Litigation or transactional): Litigation. (Tort, criminal or civil, business, estate, family):business = business/corporate litigation. Makes sense why I don't care for criminal law or people's problems in general like personal injury. Got some clarity from this video. Thanks

Thank you. Glad you found it helpful.

I appreciate you taking the time to create all of these helpful videos. I just gradauted with a business admin. degree and am working on the LSAT right now. Is it common for attorneys to have a practice focusd on M&A and real estate? Or would it be disadvantageous to practice both?

I think that most attorneys who specialize would consider M&A and Real Estate to be two different specialties. However, many attorneys are more than capable of handling both M&A and Real Estate transactions. My view is that the more time you spend working on one area of the law, the better and more valuable you become in that specialty. If you split your time and experience, you dilute your effort and value.

Thank you for giving solid advice. I feel like everything else is too general and not very helpful for me.

You are welcome. Glad it was helpful!

Can you specialize in more than one type of law? What if you want to have one specialization that’s “purpose,” and another that’s “profit” ?

It is common for lawyers to practice in more than one area of the law, but doing so creates potential inefficiencies and challenges. The issue is whether spending time practicing in one area for purpose will reduce your ability to practice in another area for profit and vice versa.

What advice would you give to someone who’s starting a Paralegal Certification

Regarding the practice area to pursue as a paralegal, I would give the same advice as in this video, except that you will not necessarily need to appear in court, but would be subject to the court's calendar if you worked in litigation. However, when starting out, we sometimes have to take the jobs that are available to gain experience, which is fine until you figure out what kind of law you really want to work in.
