"Brad Dobeck helped demystify the law school application experience. He gave me the critical tools and information I needed to create a persuasive resume and personal statement, which put me on top of the game. He helped me with the application process, as well as the interview I faced. But more importantly, Brad stayed with me through the entire selection process, giving me sound advice to help me first narrow down my options and then later pick the winning school – the one that we determined was the best choice for my needs and aspirations.

Could I have gotten into law school without Brad Dobeck? Maybe, but I certainly thought it was a long shot. Am I glad I used Brad’s services? Absolutely! I’ve spent thousands of dollars on test prep and law school applications, and even more on travel to and from schools to narrow down my options. And let’s not forget the daunting cost of law school itself. I have to say the small amount I spent for solid advice from a man with years of experience was one of the best investments I made for my future as a lawyer. Now that I am done with my race to law school, I would gladly recommend my secret weapon, Brad Dobeck at PrelawAdvisor.com, to anyone who is about to embark on the same journey."

"I looked into a number of consulting possibilities before applying to law school. Many people billed out their time at outrageous prices, or set draconian restrictions on what topics could be discussed, which schools I could apply to, and so on. It was immediately apparent to me that Brad Dobeck had a different way of doing things. Brad was available nearly every time I needed his help, often for as long as I
needed his help, even if it was an hour or two at a time. He reviewed all of my draft essays for every law school I applied to, and he always came up with thorough answers to my questions – even the ones that were a little frivolous. Brad even offered to review my application materials for other graduate programs at no extra cost. In short, Brad was the best kind of consultant – the one who isn’t really a consultant at all, but simply a trusted advisor with a genuine interest in helping you to maximize your potential. I am grateful for his service, and his friendship."

"It would be difficult for me to overstate the value that PrelawAdvisor.com brought to my law school application process. Brad Dobeck's knowledge of 'the system' is comprehensive, his efforts tireless, his concern for his advisees genuine. I essentially had a personal consultant for the whole of the process, and my goals became his. From guiding me to an excellent LSAT prep course, to exceptional advice on my personal statement, to planning the launch of my applications, even to guiding me through the strategic process of responding to the offers of various schools, the one-on-one attention I received from Brad Dobeck was invaluable. I am convinced that my association with PrelawAdvisor.com resulted in my being admitted to law schools that would otherwise have turned me down."

"Brad Dobeck gives great advice, tailored for the individual. It was great to work with a prelaw advisor who listened. He did not assume that my goals were necessarily the same as those of other students. Because he was really able to listen to my goals, dreams and educational aspirations, he helped me not only pick a great school academically, but also a school that really fit with my personality. Brad Dobeck not only helped me select the perfect school for me, but he also helped me tailor my application for that school. His knowledge about different schools and what they are looking for in an applicant is outstanding! And for someone with a less than perfect LSAT, he really helped me tailor my applications to showcase my other qualities, so that I still ended up a strong candidate for many top schools."

"After being waitlisted until August two years ago, then an outright no last year from my law school of choice, I knew I needed the help of a practical navigator if I were going to be accepted to law school. Brad Dobeck piloted me to a YES! With his insider's perspective of the admissions game, unvarnished objectivity at critical times—"no whining" and "edit that out"—he helped me sort through the chaos, and together we laid out a strategy that resulted in success. I'd been away from academics for some time, but Brad knows what law schools look for in their search for students who will thrive in law school. He helped me portray my degree from a top undergrad school and my post-academic experiences, including full-time parenting, to my best advantage. With Brad's guidance, my personal statement and resume became clean, concise and persuasive. He convinced me to endure a second LSAT, and I added eight points to my score. Brad encouraged me to apply to an additional law school in my area and to cultivate personal relationships with the schools, and this year I was accepted at both. Brad Dobeck kept me on course. He doesn't shy from what needs saying, and that's what I needed. And now, I'm implementing his advice on how to prepare before classes begin. The winning combination of working with Brad Dobeck made all the difference."

His advice proved invaluable at every stage of the process: selecting law schools, LSAT preparation, acquiring letters of recommendation, writing the personal statement, interviewing, weighing offers of admission and even considering dual degree options. He was always available with input that was consistent, honest, and reliable. Brad Dobeck was a terrific throughout a challenging process!"

"Brad Dobeck is an extremely helpful and knowledgeable prelaw advisor. He challenged me to create an application package that earned offers from seven of the top 10 law schools. He also helped me negotiate remarkable scholarship packages from these schools. And Brad's subsequent advice concerning success in law school helped me make Law Review."

"Brad Dobeck is topnotch. Working with him was a pleasure. His knowledge of admissions trends and requirements proved correct in every instance. His assessment of my chances at each of the schools to which I applied was candid, accurate, and appreciated. His help with my personal statement and application package was critical. Simply put, Brad knows the law school application and admission scene. His services put the lie to the theory that one gets what one pays for. PrelawAdvisor.com delivers well beyond its 'value pricing'."

"My experience with Brad Dobeck was truly invaluable. When I began looking for a prelaw advisor, I was torn between him and other resources. However, upon speaking with Brad, I was confident that he would prove to be a trustworthy and hardworking advisor who would give me the advantages for which I was looking, and I was right! We communicated extensively via phone, fax and email and he truly made an effort to accommodate my hectic work schedule. His dedication to his advisees is exceptional and rare in today's extremely commercialized market of professional education advisors.

In terms of choosing schools to which to apply, Brad was extremely candid and honest, which I really appreciated. He, very frankly, told me which schools were out of my reach, and which schools would love to have me as a student. From his honest evaluation of my GPA and LSAT, in conjunction with my relevant work experience and background, I feel I made a very wise choice of schools. For example, I had honestly not once considered applying to or attending the law school I'm now at, until Brad mentioned it, and now I am finishing my first year there and loving it.

Brad helped me extensively revise (and revise!) my personal statement, until he and I were both satisfied that it was the best it could be. He, in a very professional and understanding manner, answered my plethora of questions during the whole process, and believe me, I had an endless number of questions. He is extremely detail-oriented; he checked and double-checked everything for me.

Finally, Brad helped me draft correspondence to my waitlisted law school, and also to the financial aid office of the law school I ultimately accepted. Working together, he helped me obtain a scholarship. As I was completely new to the financial aid process, Brad was extremely patient and accommodating.

I cannot emphasize enough how valuable my experience was with Brad as my prelaw advisor. He awed me with his extensive knowledge of the application process as a whole, and of individual law schools. Many advisees, including myself, still keep in contact with Brad as he has clearly been such a positive and supportive influence on our law school careers.

I wish you the best of luck during this taxing application process. If you decide to work with Brad, I can assure you that he will prove to be beneficial, supportive and honest, qualities that you need in an advisor to compete in this increasingly tough market."
