Akuperma’s advice is right on point. If you son is considering a law degree focused on business law to supplement his accounting skills, than any of a number of smaller law schools offer the opportunity of extending the time for obtaining the needed degree credits and probably offer more focused instruction on nuts and bolts contracts/commercial litigation/tax/real estate etc. Not sure exactly what you mean by “frum friendly”. Almost all will involve “mixed gender” classes but most will be accommodating on attendance/exams for a shomer shabbos and yom tovim. I wouldn’t consider any of the totally “online” law schools. I’m not sure about their ABA accreditation and many employers would not consider hiring. Finally, if you are from the “south”, consider a local state university law program rather than coming to NYC if the intention is to hang out a shingle locally. Its tough to waive into the local bars from New York (which has one of the tougher bar exams).
