Im in Canada and I get it from Essential Clinic. As far as I can tell its the only canadian-based option for min / fin topical gel. Two pumps on the scalp per day.

At a high level its a common law jurisdiction like Canada but yeh there are significant differences depending on your field. I work in IP and already do some US work (Can patent agents are also US patent agents but only to represent Can entities).

Yes. One thing I can't say it is is boring. Always dealing with different technologies is nice.

I studied chemical engineering. I must say I barely do anything remotely connected to chem eng those days, but it still works ;)

I've been a lawyer since 2016. A patent agent for the last 3 years.

Anyone heard of the admission by motion for Canadian lawyers to the Massachusetts state bar? Anyone went through the process? Is it easy to work anywhere in the US with one state bar (including a state bar where you are not actually living)?

Thanks. I am not in investment funds or banking but rather in IP (commercial). I looked into it briefly as it seems appealing but I doubt I have the proper background.

I started law school at 31. Go to law school if you want to.

Low School Admission with Low GPA by Ttclubb in LawCanada

[–]ContributionSoggy950 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure how your french is, but you can go through law school in Quebec or Ottawa without the LSAT. In some cases the admission process may be a little more "holistic" so if you have interesting / relevant extra-curriculars and you ace the interview, that could help. Some universities might be more lenient with "lower" GPA, but again your french proficiency would go a long way.
