Depending on when the bankruptcy occurred and the causes for the bankruptcy, it may also have a negative effect on your ability to become employed after law school. Many law firms and other legal employers will run background checks, including credit checks, before hiring new employees.

Of course, that’s not to say that no one with a bankruptcy in their past has worked for a law firm. Again, it will be a circumstances-driven situation.
