Read a random definition: L.JJ.

A quick definition of Hague Convention on Protection of Children and Cooperation in Respect of Intercountry Adoption:

Term: Hague Convention on Protection of Children and Cooperation in Respect of Intercountry Adoption

Definition: The Hague Convention is a set of rules that countries agreed to follow when adopting children from other countries. It helps make sure that the adoption process is fair and safe for the children. However, not all countries have agreed to follow these rules yet. The United States has said they will follow the rules, but they haven't officially agreed to them yet.

A more thorough explanation:

The Hague Convention on Protection of Children and Cooperation in Respect of Intercountry Adoption is an international agreement that was established in 1993. Its purpose is to create consistent procedures for intercountry adoptions, which involve adopting a child from one country and bringing them to another country to live with their new family.

However, the Convention has not been widely accepted. While the United States has signed the agreement, it has not yet ratified it.

For example, if a family in the United States wants to adopt a child from another country that has also signed the Convention, they would need to follow the procedures outlined in the agreement. This might include obtaining approval from both the child's home country and the United States, ensuring that the child's best interests are being considered, and providing ongoing support and communication between the child and their birth family.

Overall, the Hague Convention on Protection of Children and Cooperation in Respect of Intercountry Adoption aims to protect the rights and well-being of children who are being adopted across international borders, while also ensuring that the adoption process is fair and transparent for all parties involved.

What's it take to get accepted at Harvard or Chicago like
I'm honestly gunning for a part time program at my managing partner's alma mater. It's not a high end school, but lmao to work full time and graduate *with* a job? Can't complain.

Ngl I was talking with my partners and the consensus is if you just wanna be a lawyer and work on cases any reputable school will be fine

My RC is very literally not improving. Once I get that up that LSAT exam is cooked.

i think at this point ima just take the best school that gives me a full ride, too much uncertainty with loans these days
AngryMiniCar

That's valid
Exactly. One of our attorneys is a Yale undergrad/Georgetown for JD and he said that tbh, schools only matter when you're going into biglaw or other niche practice areas. I just want to do litigation (and/or appellate work) so it's not like I need to graduate from Harvard - a local school would be just fine.
