I saw the smile Peter, but I will still say that the lawyer who represents him/herself has a fool for a client. I also think that dabblers in two professions are generally at a disadvantage both ways. Moreover, IMO, MD/JD's most often end up being expert witnesses in med mal cases, don't generally practice, and are hated by their MD peers. My suggestion would be pick one or the other unless the objective is to stay in school forever and not actually ever
work.
