I suppose it's possible that someone with a law degree would only be making 90K per year 16-20 years after law school, but not entirely likely.
You might be surprised just how many aren't close to making that much.

I'm guessing the cap is probably needs based, and, my example was almost hyperbole. I suppose it's possible that someone with a law degree would only be making 90K per year 16-20 years after law school, but not entirely likely.
In other words, 10% of your gross income on student loans sounds about right. For example, I thought the standard ratio for a mortgage, using debt from ALL sources, was in the range of 28%. Meaning car, student loans, and finally housing on top.

The problem with a great line (one that cuts the lawyer off at the knees) during a deposition is that they can always "move to strike" anything they don't like. I don't particularly enjoy being deposed, but it seems to be part of the drill for executives in today's litigious environment. As a result, I take some perverse pleasure in cutting the pees-ants down to size.

Too many lawyers. Period.
It's supply and demand. And right now there is a glut of attorneys.
I have been deposed an awful lot of times in my career. 90% of the time I answer, 'yes', 'no' and 'I do not know/remember'. The rest of the time I consult with my attorney before answering out loud.The deposition is used for several purposes, including gathering information, locking people in to a statement so that if they change it they can be impeached later.
The thing that a lot of folks don't realize about depositions is that the good zinger lines rarely become evidence in the trial for that matter a majority of the deposition is not often used at trial. The deposition is used for several purposes, including gathering information, locking people in to a statement so that if they change it they can be impeached later. One of the big things about a deposition is that you get to evaluate the opponent's witnesses or parties and how they would do on the stand, If the witness is a total ass and is easily provoked it makes their position in terms of negotiation much weaker.
Amen Brother Spike Amen.
Very true, Laws schools are profit centers for universities so they have every incentive to keep churning them out.
