Hi! I'm Julie

πŸ‘©πŸΌβ€πŸ’Ό A qualified lawyer, lecturer in Communication Studies, former top law student and award-winning journalist.


πŸ‘¨β€πŸ‘©β€πŸ‘§β€πŸ‘¦ Currently I'm a full-time mum to my two little kids and I live in Australia. 


βš–οΈ I believe the law should be accessible to everyone - including law students. This belief fuels Julie Schmidt Law, as my goal is to make the law as simple and easy to understand for law students as possible.


πŸ“ So far I have helped thousands of students get better grades at law school through selling notes, tutoring, YouTube videos and free newsletter.

Meet Nadia

πŸ–Š Nadia is Julie Schmidt Law’s official editor.


πŸ“ After getting a BA in writing, Nadia discovered a passion for editing. (So if you want a heated discussion about Oxford commas or the appropriate use of elongated hyphens, she’s your gal.)


πŸ“š She has worked with various authors and genres as a freelance editor.


πŸ‘©β€πŸ« She ensures Julie Schmidt Law keeps its authentic and relatable style, while still being grammatically correct. 


πŸ˜‡ Nadia is also a full-time mum of two little boys and an all-round incredible person. We love having her positive and intelligent mind on our team.
