Law School Expert’s top differentiators are as follows:

1. You get to work with someone who has more than 18 years of experience in law school admissions, who has actually worked in law school admissions, and helped make admission decisions for law schools. You are working with someone who has a JD degree and who is a full-time admission consultant dedicated to serving law school applicants. You get to talk to your consultant before making a decision – we offer a free initial consultation. When you get started, you will have direct access to your consultant by phone, email, Zoom, and even Slack if you’d like! There is no middle management or receptionist here.
2. Ann Levine, who has made law school admission decisions for two ABA-approved law schools and who has been a full-time law school admission consultant since founding Law School Expert in 2004, literally wrote the book on law school admissions. The Law School Admission Game was a bestseller when originally published in 2009, and the updated version, published in 2013, is consistently an Amazon.com bestseller. She is also the author of The Law School Decision Game (2011), which is geared toward helping applicants decide whether law school is right for them and how to make good decisions regarding their prospective legal careers. Ann has personally coached more than 2,000 law school applicants since 2004 and clients who sign up for The Works Package or the Personal Statement PLUS Package work directly with Ann throughout the process.
3. With Law School Expert you know (before payment) the caliber of the admission counselor who will be guiding you through such an important time in your life. You will talk with her and make sure it’s a good fit.

Ann Levine works with all clients that purchase the The Works Package or the Personal Statement PLUS Package. As Ann explains, “I take on the same number of clients each year so I have it down to a system. It’s really important to me that I turn personal statements around within a business day or two, that I return resumes and addenda and shorter review items within a day or day and a half, and that I return all e-mails and phone calls promptly.After 18+ years, I can estimate really well whether I’m capable of continuing to take on clients. I do everything in my power to deliver the absolute best customer service, to be so responsive to my clients that it actually surprises them how quickly I get things back, and to provide the highest quality law school admission advice available. Contact me if you have questions about availability.”

Example of a personal statement for law school application: “Where do you live?” This was the easy question. It was the follow-up questions that posed a greater problem. This was not just any ordinary person asking, this was an attorney in the law firm where I worked. If I hid now, from a lawyer, I knew a series of complicated semantic shifts and half-truths would follow, requiring me to constantly be on guard. I ran through my informal checklist. Andrew was male, over 30, and while not overtly religious, I did not know where he was educated or where he grew up. Based on this information (or lack thereof), I chose not to tell him that I live in a one-bedroom apartment with my partner, whose gender would have given away the fact that I am a homosexual. In high school I lived in fear of being discovered after a teacher warned that coming out of the closet would jeopardize my safety. My experience in college differed dramatically; my floor mates accepted my homosexuality. I thought the world of hatred was behind me until I joined the Coming Out Group, a group of men who met in secret. I went to the first meeting expecting a social group, but soon found myself in shock over the intense difficulties my peers faced. Each week, I heard horror stories of classmates whose parents refused to talk to them, put them into therapy or threatened to disown them if they stayed gay. One student never got invited to social events with his male co-workers. As I worked more with the group, eventually becoming its leader, I helped classmates deal with these hardships. As I watched others struggle, I started treading more carefully. The trick was figuring out who could be trusted and who could not. I developed a foolproof way of distinguishing one from the other. It was at this point that I began forming the mental checklist. Then I found myself back in Andrew’s office, where he asked me about my weekend plans. This time, I began my response with the words: My boyfriend and I. Without a moment’s hesitation he simply replied, Oh, that sounds like fun. His reaction, or lack thereof, stunned me. My checklist had pointed me in the wrong direction. Even more troubling was the realization that I was the victim of my own stereotyping, not Andrew’s. Because of fear, I began to judge some people more harshly than they judged me. My own fear has held me back from relationships with people far more than reality has. Each incorrect judgment I made in the past perhaps halted a relationship from forming. Since becoming aware of this pattern, I have changed the way I approach meeting new people. I admit I still use my checklist; but I remember the items on that list are just guidelines, not rules, and I am cautious in making judgments too quickly. Approaching a problem with a rigid mind loses critical nuances. As I enter law school, I will take this lesson with me. By P.A., New York
