Jasmin Robinson is a trailblazing attorney and law school coach
dedicated to increasing diversity in the legal profession. In
this episode, she shares her journey from being the first lawyer
in her family to founding Jas Talks Law, a consulting brand that
has helped students secure over $2 million in scholarships.
Jasmin emphasizes the importance of personalized guidance in the
law school admissions process and her mission to empower future
lawyers, particularly from underrepresented backgrounds.





Lawyer Side Hustles


In the podcast episode featuring Attorney Jasmin Robinson, the
discussion highlights the growing trend of lawyers engaging in
side hustles, particularly through her own venture, Jas Talks
Law. This business not only serves as a law school admissions
consulting brand but also addresses the significant
underrepresentation of Black lawyers in the legal profession.
Jasmin's journey exemplifies how lawyers can leverage their
expertise to create additional income streams while making a
meaningful impact in their communities. By helping aspiring law
students secure scholarships and navigate the admissions process,
she has successfully combined her passion for law with
entrepreneurship.
“I didn't even look at it as a business. I just looked at it as
something I wanted to help people,” shares Jasmin Robinson in
Episode 168 of You Are a Lawyer.

By establishing side businesses like Jas Talks Law, attorneys can
not only enhance their professional fulfillment but also
contribute to addressing systemic issues within the legal field.
Such initiatives not only empower future lawyers but also allow
current practitioners to utilize their skills in innovative ways,
ultimately enriching the legal landscape.
