Becoming a lawyer for an investment bank or dealing with stock issues?


what law schools offer programs that specialize in stocks or investment law? and what are the best ones? How much do lawyers that practice invesment law get paid? How hard is it to get into a school and how competitive is the job market? What do investment lawyers typically do? and do they work for law firms or invesment banks?

Work hard to get to a very good law school and work hard while in law school. You don't want to be a lawyer for an investment bank - IPO and M&A work is always done by external legal teams.

Schools? Think top 10-15.

Law firms? Skadden, Simpson Thatcher, Davis Polk, Sullivan & Cromwell, Jones Day, Weil Gotschal are some of the best.

Competitive? You better believe it.

Consider getting a law degree, with studies for a CPA somewhere along the way. This would be a good grounding for doing what you want to do.
