What can a lawyer do with a background in science? -

I ll be going into my third year as an undergrad majoring in biology/chemistry. I am weighing out my options for grad school, and I am considering law. What sort of jobs could a lawyer do in the field of science? I d like to be able to apply my scientific knowledge to some degree. Thanks :)

Intellectual Property Law (which includes patent law) is one of the highest paying areas of law. I was just talking with a Patent Attorney today who was talking about how much her undergraduate degree in Chemistry helps her to understand the issues.

Patent lawyer springs to mind. If you get medical training it would probably be of assistance in compensation claims. Thanks Bill
