After my years as an undergraduate, I plan on attending law school so I can pursue a career as an attorney. I would love to work in an international setting, whether that be in a corporate or governmental environment, but honestly it’s kind of hard to say where I’ll end up. However, as of right now I am positive that law is the profession I will enter, so regarding my perspective towards disability I will speak in generalities.
If you are the type of lawyer that interacts on a regular basis with the people that could potentially be hiring you for your services (think private practice), I can imagine that the ability to cater towards those with disabilities could prove profitable. Especially when you consider that the client will most likely be visiting you in whatever building you work in, having an inaccessible building could definitely reduce your chances with customers who have to jump through hoops to meet you.
With disability and equality being such a widely discussed topic in recent years, there are definitely cases where attorneys are hired to settle disputes between the disabled and whatever party wronged them. I don’t believe this is the sort of law I’ll end up doing, but nevertheless I think that it’s worth mentioning. I don’t necessarily know enough about the intricacies of the law profession because there is so much variation, but I think it’s most important to view a law firm or private practice as a business, in which one would want to be able to cater fully to the needs to potential customers. In my next installments, I’m thinking that I’ll delve into some of the more common offshoots of law, for the sake of the research project.
