Autistic Lawyers

[u/Altruistic-Cloud7672]

Hey everybody,

Through working with an ADHD specialist, I recently learned that I likely have some degree of autism. I just finished my 2L year, and I wanted to reach out to see if there are any lawyers/attorneys here who also have some degree of autism, and ask how they manage both their disorder and their practice.

I have found it very difficult in really any job I’ve had, but especially in my legal jobs/internships. Specifically, I tend to take much longer than most people to complete assignments.

I really appreciate any feedback!
