I don't have any mock trial experience, nor law work
experience. The place I might want to work is Texas. I
haven't taken the bar yet. What law jobs do you think I might
qualify for while studying for the bar? Am I eligible for
paralegal? If I pass the bar, how much of a pay can I expect
for criminal defense attorney?
