    I completed my engineering degree, but I have a passion for law. I find myself reading case laws from our Supreme Court, tort law, conveyance law, Human Rights, civil procedure rule 2002, and I think I want to make the transition. Your video was helpful and insightful. Thank you!

    I use to work as a legal secretary and then started a course in UWI. The Attorneys made me got discourage in school because of how they treat their workers. I changed my profession.

    Congratulations on your professional career path. I am extremely proud to see you grow and flourish in your career path as an attorney at law. I know auntie DonnaLee is immensely proud of the young woman you have become. I have not seen you since you were a little girl. I know you don't remember me but i have known you since you were a little girl traveling back and forth to the Cayman Islands. By the way, continue to inspire and educate young mature women into the law profession. I believe that your videos will be helping others with insightful tips who are aspiring to become an attorney in the future. You're doing an immaculate job. I pray that god will cover you and order your steps in everything you touch or do.

    Hello and greetings from Guyana. I'm really seriously considering law as a career. However, I would like for you to do a video on 1L law books. Thanks in advance.

    I attended a call to the bar ceremony once, I think it was 2017. We went to support a young man from church. It was an interesting ceremony. interestingly, I used to work for an attorney in the 90s whose name is Green.

    Hi can I share a binding precedent case with you and if possible can you analyze and give input about it on your channel?

    Just came across your video and feel so encouraged. I have always worked as an in court clerk in the USA so I spend most of my days in court working with the judge. I have gained a wealth of knowledge and friends and family always encouraged me to take my experience a step further and become an attorney. I am currently still living and working in the court system overseas but would love to move back to Jamaica some day. Any advice on this though. How does being an attorney in Jamaica compare to being an attorney in the USA. I know you have not worked as an attorney in the USA, so I think my question should be instead that how does one transition from being an attorney in the USA to an attorney in Jamaica. Would you get your bar license in the US and then practice law in Jamaica. Of course the laws are going to be different but would you let that stop you from studying overseas

    How long does it take to be called to the bar?
