WOWK — Does West Virginia need more lawyers? Some delegates in the legislature say so, and they’ve introduced a bill to create a law school in Charleston. Last Monday, House Bill 4425 was introduced to create a second law school in the Mountain Statet. Lawmakers say the goal is to give non-traditional students more options to get a law degree. “We need this; a lot of bigger cities have these type of opportunities,” says Delegate Matthew Rohrbach. Delegate Rohrbach introduced the bill. He says people who already have jobs need more flexibility than traditional law students. If approved, the law school would be in South Charleston and be affiliated with Marshall University. It would have a non-traditional attendance model, offering evening, weekend, and night classes. “We have one law school that is strictly full-time, traditional attendance type of model. You could go part-time. So there’s a real need out here for individuals that need a legal education but they can’t really stop their professions and go to a traditional law school three years straight,” Rohrbach says. It’s an idea both sides of the aisle seem to be on board with.
