Schroeder Perspective Featured in American Ag Law Assn Newsletter

May is graduation season, and the American Agricultural Law Association selected perspective from Brianna Schroeder to be their top newsletter story, pointing out “This article is timely for students graduating, those looking at opportunities, or others considering a career change.” Following are excerpts from her article entitled “What It's Like to Be a Private Practitioner.”

“Large corporate law firms with dozens of practice groups, mid-size firms working in a specific niche, and small focused practices with only a few lawyers…I’ve worked at them all! This article is intended to give a broad look at what it is like to be a private practitioner. Of course, there is no way to completely encapsulate all the possible law firm experiences in one short piece. However, I do think there are some aspects to private practice that hold true across most firms. Here are the top three takeaways for aspiring, new, or perhaps reinventing lawyers.”

Here are her three top takeaways - to see the entire article with details on each takeaway, reach out to Brianna at info@aglaw.us.

  1. First, you are in the driver’s seat.

  2. Second, in the private practice world, I think the practice of law has the possibility of never getting boring.

  3. Third, and maybe this applies to other areas of the law as well, being in private practice allows you to interact with so many interesting people.

She wraps up the article saying “The world could use a little cordiality in the marketplace of ideas. It might as well start with lawyers!”
