What is This Smart, Well-Educated, Dallas Attorney Rachel Lindsay Doing on The Bachelor?


LawNewz.com:
If you were watching The Bachelor Monday night, you might have noticed the presence of an unlikely contestant: Dallas attorney Rachel Lindsay. She caught our attention because why would such a highly qualified and accomplished young woman such as Lindsay subject herself to the circus that is The Bachelor?

She’s got a pretty impressive legal pedigree. Lindsay, 31, a Marquette University Law School graduate, received her bachelor’s degree in kinesiology and sports management from the University of Texas in Austin. She has worked in various positions related to sports, entertainment, and media relations, in addition to working as an intern in the public defender’s office in Milwaukee and as a legal intern with the Milwaukee Bucks. After graduating from Marquette, Rachel worked as an attorney with Brown & Hofmeister, LLP as well as the Willis Law Group before moving onto her current position as a civil litigation attorney with Cooper & Scully, P.C.  Lindsay is admitted to practice law in Texas, Wisconsin and the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Texas.  Surely not the predictable candidate for a run of The Bachelor.


So why the need to appear on the primetime show? It seems that while she is proud of her accomplishments, Lindsey believes all of the time spent on her professional life may have ultimately taken a toll on her love life.  In her profile, Lindsay states that focusing too much on her career is her biggest regret and believes that might have led her to miss out on her chance at finding love.
