Dear Ms.
Lockwood:
I am a senior at Concordia College and am
considering going to law school to become a lawyer.
However, I am not sure if I am the kind of person who
would make a good lawyer. Since you are an expert in
this field, I would like to ask you for some advice.
I like working with people and solving problems. I
consider myself a good speaker, and I get along well with
the people I work with. I always come up with good
solutions to daily problems, but I do not like taking risks. I
am very careful about what I do. Do you think a career in
law would suit me?
I realize you are probably very busy, but if you find
time to answer, I would be very grateful. You can also
reach me by phone as (396) 555-3118. Thank you very
much.
Sincerely,
