Why I Become an Attorney

Ever since Junior High School I’ve known that I wanted to be an attorney protecting the underdog. Today, more than 2 Million people are in jail in the U.S.– more than any country in the world other than China. My job, the way I see it, is to keep people who deserve not to go to jail…. out of jail!

It’s both an intellectual challenge from the legal side, drawing on everything I know, and a personal challenge.

A former member of the adjunct faculty at Fisher College in North Attleboro, Ma. and Dean College in Franklin, Ma., Kerri Quintal is qualified to teach law, government, criminal justice, computers and social services department. Quintal also previously wrote a law column for The Sun Chronicle, tackling issues that are relevant to local residents.
