At the T14 level, strong numbers get you considered. Your narrative determines what happens next. Every engagement is executed personally — no junior associates, no handoffs — with one goal: building the most strategically precise application your profile supports.
What you get with every engagement
I work exclusively with applicants who are seriously targeting T14 schools and who have — or can realistically build — a competitive profile. I keep my client roster deliberately small because the quality of my work depends on it.
The first step is simple: tell me about your candidacy and goals. If it looks like a fit, I'll recommend an Assessment Session — a 90-minute conversation where I tell you, honestly and directly, whether I think I can help you and what your candidacy realistically supports. If I don't think the engagement is right for you, I will say so — before you retain me.
That candor is unusual in this industry. It is also the only way I am willing to practice.
Yale, Harvard, Stanford, Columbia, Chicago, NYU, Penn, Virginia, Michigan, Duke, Northwestern, Cornell, Georgetown, or UCLA.
Typically 165+ for most T14 targets, 170+ for the top five. LSAT tutoring is available as a standalone or paired service.
You expect the person you're paying to be the person doing the work — not reviewing it for fifteen minutes before it goes out.
You want to know where your application is weak, not just where it's strong. You can handle the truth, and you want it.
Three clearly scoped engagements. Every one is executed personally by me — not delegated. LSAT tutoring is available as a standalone service or combined with any package at a 10% discount.
End-to-end guidance through every stage of the application process — from school selection and narrative strategy through final submission and waitlist management. For applicants who want a full partner, not a document editor.
A 10% discount applies when Package A is combined with any LSAT tutoring block. Assessment fee ($300) credited in full toward this package.
For applicants whose school list and strategy are set, who need expert help with the written materials — the part of the application most consultants treat as an afterthought and that admissions committees weight most heavily.
For applicants whose candidacy and goals are already clear — who need expert input on a specific question rather than end-to-end support. School list, narrative framing, LSAT score assessment, career alignment. Minimum 2 hours per engagement.
A 90-minute paid session to evaluate your full profile: your GPA, LSAT score or target, undergraduate institution, work experience, and goals. I give you an honest read on your candidacy, a realistic school list, and a frank assessment of whether — and how — I can help. No sales pitch. No false optimism. The fee is credited in full toward any engagement you subsequently begin.
Every engagement follows a structured approach developed from formal education training and refined across years of working with high-stakes applicants.
Tell me about your candidacy and goals. I respond personally, review your situation, and — if it looks like a fit — invite you to complete a brief questionnaire. From there, we schedule a paid Assessment Session ($300, credited toward any engagement) to evaluate your full profile in depth: your GPA, LSAT, school list, narrative, and realistic range.
We build your school list, narrative arc, and application timeline — grounded in your actual profile, not wishful thinking.
Iterative drafting, detailed feedback, and real-time collaboration through every written component of your application.
Final review, submission strategy, and post-submission support including waitlist letters and decision-making guidance.
This practice is designed for applicants who are genuinely targeting T14 admissions — not as a long-shot, but as a realistic goal grounded in a competitive profile. If your LSAT score is at or approaching T14 medians, or you are working toward that range, and your GPA is in a defensible position for the schools you're targeting, we likely have a conversation worth having. If your numbers are materially below T14 medians, I will tell you that honestly during the Assessment Session and refer you to resources that are a better fit.
Strong numbers are necessary but not sufficient at the top schools. Harvard, Yale, Stanford, and Columbia reject large numbers of statistically qualified applicants every cycle. What separates admits from waitlists at that level is almost always the quality of the written application — how clearly and compellingly you have made the case for who you are, why law, and why this school. That is precisely where expert guidance has the most leverage on your outcome.
A writing coach can improve your prose. What I bring is something different: I read your application the way an admissions committee reads it — as a lawyer evaluating an argument, as someone who scored 176 and understands the analytical profile being assessed, and as a credentialed educator who knows how to close the gap between where you are and where your writing needs to be. The work starts with strategy — what story to tell, how to position your specific profile for specific schools — and the drafting follows from that.
For applicants targeting fall entry, the spring and summer before you apply are the right time to engage. T14 admissions is rolling — schools that fill early in the cycle close doors that are still open to an October applicant. Starting in July or August gives us time to build a real strategy and execute the written materials without compression. If you are already mid-cycle and need focused help, that conversation is still worth having.
No — and any consultant who does is telling you what you want to hear. What I guarantee is this: honest assessment of your candidacy before you retain me, expert strategic guidance built on your actual profile rather than generic templates, and personal attention on every piece of work from start to finish. The rest depends on the strength of your application and the decisions of admissions committees I do not control — but my job is to ensure that whatever your profile supports, your application reflects it at the highest possible level.
Every client has a dedicated workspace where every draft, strategy note, and submission milestone is tracked. Work moves primarily by email and scheduled video sessions — I do not run a texting practice or a calendar-booking portal. You will hear from me within 24 hours on business days, and within four hours during the October–December peak season. Every response comes from me directly.
Yes, and the combination is the strongest version of what this practice offers. A 176 LSAT and eleven years of instruction means I can assess your scoring ceiling honestly, identify exactly what is limiting your score, and work with you to close the gap — then carry that understanding directly into the admissions strategy. Clients who combine LSAT tutoring with Package A or Package B receive a 10% discount. See the LSAT page for tutoring details.
The first step is simple: tell me about your candidacy — your LSAT score or target, your GPA, and the schools you're considering. I'll review it personally and let you know honestly what I think, including whether an Assessment Session makes sense as a next step.
No cost to reach out. If an Assessment Session is the right next step, I'll explain why and what it costs. Limited spots each cycle.
