Message: I have a few questions about the accounting field. I'm actually an attorney who recently graduated from law school. Needless to say this is one of the worst economies for attorney's in the last 30 years and it doesn't look like its getting better anytime soon. I wasnt able to get an absolute legal job coming out L-school and fell into a corporation where I do legal work, sales, and product development. One of the products I am working on has to do with sarbannes-oxley and I've discovered that I really like business and accounting. I was wondering if I got a make if I would be too old to get a job in accounting, I just turned 27 so I would be 28 when it is done? Additionally, I'm more interested in audit work but would my JD help me in Tax at the big four? Any advice would be great. Thanx
