Did you know the average law school graduate has $140,000 in debt at the end of school? Many attorneys don't know that they have options when it comes to how they repay their student loan debt. They can often save tens of thousands by considering an income driven repayment plan or by refinancing.

Additionally, a lot of small firms don't provide any sort of retirement for their attorneys and so I would go over the different options available. Their options completely depend on the type of practice and their type of employment. I usually go over the different types of retirement plans and how to find the best plan for your personal situation.
