Although going to law school is one way to get an in-depth understanding of Missouri laws, it's not the only way to get up-to-date on Missouri's laws and legal system. Learning about the law can be as quick and easy as taking a walk around the block and listening to a 20-minute interview of a lawyer talking about a legal topic that you want to know more about.
The Missouri Bar produces a blog and podcast -- The Law in Your Life -- that each week includes an interview with a Missouri lawyer about laws that are in the news and affect you. If you want, you can listen to the interview on your computer. Or, it might be more convenient for you to download the interview onto your iPod or other MP3 player and listen to it while you exercise or walk your dog.
To view the blog and podcast go to: http://learfieldcreative.typepad.com/mobar/ If you sign up on the podcast page, you can be alerted each time a new interview is completed and ready for a listen. Listening to The Law in Your Life won't get a law school education, but you'll get a better understanding of your rights and responsibilities that can make life easier.
