LAW 399 - 001

The purpose of this course is to prepare students for the opportunities and personal financial challenges they will encounter during their legal careers. My goal is to show each student that strong financial habits are crucial and beneficial for all types of attorneys and all levels of income. Students will learn that it is possible for all of us to obtain financial freedom, which translates into the power of choice. When we have the power to choose, we have the power to live a life that conforms to our personal values, including the strong values instilled upon us at Loyola. When we are not encumbered by poor financial choices, we are free to choose our professional focus, to share our talents with the disadvantaged members of our community, and to work on passion projects. Importantly, we can choose to spend more time with loved ones.
