18-Year-Old Becomes Louisiana's Youngest Law Graduate, Aiming for Advanced Degree
An 18-year-old from Bay St. Louis, Jimmy Chilimigras, has become the youngest law school graduate in Louisiana, completing his studies at Loyola University New Orleans Law School. Chilimigras, who graduated in the top two percent of his class, has been on an accelerated educational path since a young age. He graduated high school at 12, took the LSAT at 14, and by 15, he had earned a bachelor's and master's degree in accounting, becoming the world's youngest CPA. Chilimigras plans to pursue an advanced tax law post-doctoral degree at Northwestern in Chicago. His achievements have been supported by his family, who homeschool their children, and he has expressed a desire to make tax filing less stressful for families through his future law practice.
