A quick definition of Rambo lawyer:

Term: Rambo Lawyer

Definition: A Rambo lawyer is a type of lawyer who uses aggressive and sometimes unethical tactics to represent their client. They may not show courtesy or professionalism when dealing with other lawyers. This behavior is not acceptable and can lead to negative consequences for both the lawyer and their client.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: A Rambo lawyer is a slang term used to describe a lawyer, particularly a litigator, who uses aggressive, unethical, or illegal tactics in representing a client. They also lack courtesy and professionalism when dealing with other lawyers.

For example, a Rambo lawyer may use intimidation tactics, make false accusations, or engage in other unethical behavior to win a case. They may also refuse to cooperate with opposing counsel or engage in personal attacks.

One famous example of a Rambo lawyer is portrayed in the movie "A Few Good Men," where the character Lieutenant Daniel Kaffee, played by Tom Cruise, uses aggressive tactics to defend his clients in a military court martial.

Overall, Rambo lawyers prioritize winning at all costs over ethical and professional behavior, which can harm the legal system and the reputation of the legal profession.

Also, quote where I say they should R&R. I actually went out of my way to look at the school and provide extra information and/or questions to ask that would encourage them not to R&R

@OrganicAcridWizard: ur welcome and as stated previously, not an oracle. Make the decision that you are comfortable with, and what is to happen is to happen. Law school is bound to be an extremely stressful time in your life, and no amount of money will change you being desperately unhappy because of where you geographically reside. If living in NYC will make you happier, I think that is a completely valid reason to R&R. If you're like me, however, and are just desperately afraid of the unknown, get more familiar with the school and the region and the stats and the people. Do research and make it feel less alien to you.

Digi is this forum's equivalent of a troll under the bridge: cranky, gross, and should be widely disregarded. If the pessimism wasn't deterrent enough, the sexism, slurs, and likely fake account should suffice.

but I think I could get to NYC for work from there and no tuition so hey

Literally damn close to same story with me. Huge scholarship, but 2,000 miles. Middle of nowhere school, population 7,000. Have no connections to the state, but hey, they place big law in DC and NY, and are giving me the most bang for my buck right now. I've gotten so much more comfortable with W&L by browsing the subreddit for testimonials, reaching out to current students on LinkedIn, and even making random connections with people in the state.
