answered "I am 27 years old and have just finished law school and passed the state bar examination. Now I am ready to begin my new career as a lawyer. I am not interested in a job with a big firm. I’d like to be more on my own. I have two friends who are in similar situations. But it takes money to start a law practice. A modern law firm needs a lot of business machines—computers, copiers, fax machines, and so on. Even in a small firm the lawyers might need to hire some helpers—a receptionist, maybe a paralegal worker. I want this firm to be a success, but I am not sure I have all the legal and business skills I need to pull it off." What type of business do you recommend?

Final answer:

I recommend the student to establish a solo law practice.

Step-by-step explanation:

The business I would recommend for the student is establishing a solo law practice.

Starting a solo law practice would allow the student to be independent and have more control over their career. While it does require financial investment to start a law practice, the student can start small and gradually expand as they gain clients and experience. The student can also consider networking with other lawyers for advice and guidance in both legal and business matters.
