    Alison Monahan was a successful patent attorney who was tired of selling her time. She finally quit her job to write the book she’s been talking to friends about when she connected with her now business partner.

    Together, they formulated Law School Toolbox, an educational platform to help law students succeed during law school and help them pass the Bar Exam more easily.

Unlike a lot of partnerships, however. theirs has blossomed over the years because of how they communicate.

    • What led Alison Monahan to pursue a law career 

    • What makes Alison’s relationship with her business partner work so well

    • Why passing the bar is so challenging
