My pleasure, I apologize for the length. Truthfully, I think I've been able to build better rapports with the taxation authorities we go up against than my colleagues - it's been suggested that the stutter makes me more human and increases the chance of compromising/settling. In stand-off situations, a bit of compassion can lead to more favourable resolutions. Depending on what type of law you wish to practice, perhaps the stutter could even be useful (Criminal Defense?). Here's a lawyer writing about his stutter and how it helped him. https://www.bizjournals.com/philadelphia/blog/jeff-blumenthal/2011/03/the-lawyers-speech-stutter-turns-out.html
