That's a good point. In law school, a whole year was spent taking classes on subjects I would never use, like criminal and family law.

Maybe they should break down the legal education to allow a degree in a certain topic and limit the law license to that.

Or, allow certifications in certain topics that non-lawyers could receive, like divorce.
