I want to be a family law attorney. I told a retired immigration attorney about it in passing conversation and this person warned me my life might be at risk because family law attorneys get unalived more than other attorneys. I tried to find a statistic later, but I couldn't find anything other than an ABA article from 2018. No statistic. Now I'm scared. What is your experience?
