What organizations should I contact or form connections with before going into the legal field?
I am a 17 year old girl living in Bothell, Washington hoping to major in sociology and minor in pre-law at Biola University. I would love to attend law school at the University of Washington, but I need financial help to get there.

Nathan’s Answer
I was on a pre-law track in undergrad and one of the best things I did to help me learn I didn't want to go law school was I got a job as a courier at a law firm during the summer and I worked there part-time during the semester. I ended up doing more than just running filings back and forth to the court house. It also gave me really good insight into what the day to day life of an attorney would be like. Eventually I was even doing some research on cases (reading through financial evidence annotating suspicion things for the attorney to look at, organizing documents, etc.). It was one of the best choices I made to help me make my decision in the field and for the record I might change my career again and a JD is an option!
Thank you, Nathan!
