Seventy-five percent of the lawyers in South Dakota’s Rural Attorney Recruitment Program were still in the rural practice of law at the ten-year anniversary of the program. This chapter considers why participants stayed or left. For most participants, the work was good, the pay was satisfactory, and the lifestyle was desirable. Not all lawyers were happy, and the chapter discusses whether the stipend could be modified to prevent further departures, though concludes that the program has been a success.
