The Juris Doctor Program
Most general practitioners work in small firms or in solo practice. Although most lawyers interested in working in a small town will find themselves working as generalists, many lawyers working in small to medium-sized firms in larger towns and cities may also practice as generalists.
If you anticipate a career as a general practitioner or you are simply unsure of what kind of career you want, you should take a rich variety of courses while in law school to obtain the breadth necessary to advise clients who may have a multitude of needs and to develop client-oriented skills.
