My advice to current law students is to gain as much practical experience as possible through internships, externships, and networking. Engaging with professionals in your area of interest can provide invaluable insights into the realities of practice. Stay proactive in seeking mentorship, as building relationships can lead to job opportunities and career growth. Also, keep an open mind about the areas of law you explore. You might discover unexpected interests that align with your skills and values.
