When we here at Noodle think about the later careers of child actors, the category of jurisprudence isn't one of the first things that comes to mind. That is, until we came across this list from The Nutmeg Lawyer, one of our favorite blawgs out there. Here are some of the most suprising:

Jeff Cohen, A.K.A. Chunk did the truffle shuffle all the way to a degree from the UCLA School of Law and now works as a partner at an entertainment law firm in L.A.

Paul Pfeiffer from The Wonder Years

Actor Josh Saviano grew up and studied at the Benjamin Cardozo School of Law and is now an associate at the Morris Cohen Law firm in NYC.
