How We Work With You
What People Are Saying About Legal Education Consulting
S.J. Quinney College of Law
“We wanted to elevate our communications to prospective and current applicants—while still keeping our staff workloads manageable. LSAC's LEC team worked with us to develop and implement a CRM system that automated our emails and maximized their impact and engagement. The LEC team was fabulous to work with—they took time to understand our goals, help us think through possibilities, and develop an automated communications structure that matches our unique needs and admissions processes. Now we're able to put our best foot forward when communicating with prospects and applicants, while enabling our team to work more efficiently.“
Henry Randolph, Director of Marketing & Communications
Samford University Cumberland School of Law
“I cannot express enough gratitude for LSAC’s Legal Education Consulting team during our time of transition.The team brought a level of expertise and professionalism that exceeded our expectations. LEC has been instrumental throughout the entire admission cycle this year. From providing a deep level of admission knowledge to sharing current legal trends and offering advice and recommendations for tackling different areas of the admission process, they were instrumental every step of the way. Their commitment to understanding our unique needs and challenges truly made for a wonderful partnership. I highly recommend LEC to any institution seeking guidance and support in the realm of law school admission.“
Cat Miaoulis, Director of Admission
Louisiana State University Paul M. Hebert Law Center
“LEC’s principal consultant for academics and curriculum did an excellent job mapping our curriculum, pointing out opportunities for growth, and providing strategies to accomplish our goals. This required particular insight given Louisiana’s unique bijural legal heritage and the role of LSU graduates in populating the bench and bar in the state. She took the time to develop a deep understanding of our faculty, traditions, and culture, and provided a concrete action plan to guide our efforts going forward.“
Alena Allen, Dean
Cornell Law School
“While at my former law school, we received notice that we were losing our admissions coordinator mid-cycle, a month prior to our first enrollment deposit and three months prior to our database transition to Unite. We were in a panic as we were already understaffed and did not have a trained back-up for the position. I reached out to John Miller at LSAC’s Legal Education Consulting Services and he responded quickly. Within weeks we had remote support that not only provided coordinator services but also assisted in the training of our new hire in the role. LSAC was a true operational partner, and we will be forever grateful and indebted to them for their support.“
Monica Ingram, Vice Provost for Enrollment Management, Seattle University School of Law
Texas Southern University, Thurgood Marshall School of Law
“The LSAC Legal Education Consulting group wrote an excellent report assessing Thurgood Marshall School of Law’s current curriculum and Office of Academic Support (OAS) programming. It made helpful recommendations to our faculty for improving our curriculum to prepare our students for the NextGen bar examination.“
Okezie Chukwumerije, Interim Dean and Professor of Law
University of Arkansas at Little Rock – William H. Bowen School of Law
“The LEC team was very helpful in developing a recruitment strategy when we suddenly lost all our admission staff. They stepped right in and made sure we were able to admit and deny students as well as process applications in a timely manner.“
Theresa Beiner, Nadine Baum Distinguished Professor of Law and former Dean
Vermont Law and Graduate School
“Partnering with LSAC Legal Education Consulting has helped us navigate through difficult times. Their deep knowledge of legal and policy education, admissions, data modeling, and trends in the industry helps schools like us prepare for the future. They offer real solutions with a client-first mindset. I recently reached out again to ask for LEC’s help to increase our applications. They responded immediately to offer a discovery session to talk through the new digital marketing service. It’s refreshing to know that there is a team at LSAC dedicated to our success and the success of all member schools.“
Katie Merrill, Dean of Admissions
Ave Maria School of Law
“Having started this role mid-cycle with no staff and a high volume of pending applications, I was ecstatic to learn of LSAC’s consulting services. Legal Education Consulting has become a true innovation partner for me - analyzing and helping us streamline our processes, counseling us on best practices, supporting the hiring of new staff, and offering extensive training while helping us implement new features and automation. The team hit the ground running alongside me and together we are building an admissions office of the future. I could not be happier with my decision to bring them on board.“
Roxanna Cruz, Associate Dean of Admissions
Cornell Law School
“Cornell Law School used LSAC’s Legal Education Consulting Services (LEC) over the course of four months as we transitioned JD Coordinators and from ACES2 to Unite. Our LEC Coordinator provided top level service at all stages of the contract and we are very pleased with having used LSAC for this service. Also gained was a better understanding of our systems, improvements for future use, and a JD Coordinator who knows their role better. Our relationship with our LEC Coordinator added value to the process and to future collaborations with LSAC. The service provided was well worth the cost of our contract.“
