Read the talk, “What’s Happening at Law Schools?” which was authored by NPLA advisory board member, Shanin Specter, and former NPLA board member Lisa Qian to explain the recent growth in interest in plaintiffs’ law at law schools across the country. The talk breaks down the reasons why BigLaw is increasingly unattractive and plaintiffs’ law increasingly attractive to students. Additionally, the talk details the challenges that remain in getting law students to the plaintiffs’ side.
