They have to develop skills as ass-fucking generalists somewhere.

Craigslist for lawyers? They were all going to be Legal Aid hippies anyway.

By the time I got all the rules read, my boner would have left the building.

The guy's probably not even a lawyer. Do you have any idea of how stressful studying for the bar exam was? The last thing on anyone's mind was drinking and wallowing in the bodily fluids of complete strangers.

Then what's the motivation for soliciting the participation of lawyers? Free legal help (via blackmail) later in life? Possible access to the 'halls of power' if any should seek public office? It seems like a real long con, if there's no immediate benefit (beyond the obvious swapping of bodily fluids with complete strangers). We really have to wonder tho, for every one yutz who puts up an ad, how many others aren't?

I was assuming it was for the blackmail factor. Most states have a character and fitness committee that you must get past before being licensed. While participation in said orgy would not likely PREVENT getting licensed, it would hold it up while they determine whether you were participating in anything illegal.

Yeah I concurr, many of the students who i knew taking the Bar exam had set up jobs and had massive loan payments coming due now that they were out of school. Any delay at all in making the bar and starting would have cost them tens of thousands of dollars

Yes, I keep forgetting there is such a thing. It's so easy to, once you've met enough criminal defense lawyers.

Then I guess it kinda falls down the middle between "the last sort of deviant hurrah that could be written off to stress or youth" and "there are just some kids who are becoming lawyers because it's what mommy 'n' daddy wanted...and mommy 'n' daddy footed the bill."
Ever wonder why we didn't live in a society where TEACHERS had such a stringent training and vetting process, and were subsequently paid handsomely for their efforts? Instead, it's the Law, and we still don't do that particularly well, as a culture (I think we can all agree that most doctors are exempt from this lil paradigm).

Stringent vetting? I think not. When we realized that they didn't check id's for the ETHICS portion of the CPA test, I went and took it for a girlfriend. Didn't even have to dress in drag as she had a name that could be male or female. I passed with flying colors getting 98 % correct. I am very proud of that.
