This depends on how bad you are. If you can't even visualize a simple mathematical concept then you may have a cognitive perception problem that might keep you from a number of occupations. But if you are measuring yourself against a calculus whiz, don't worry about it. Most people can't handle that either. Also, lawyers - corporate or otherwise - do a great many different things. You might be good at analyzing publicity releases but bad at financial analysis. You might be good at researching legal issues but bad at presenting them (verbally) in court or in negotiations. Corporate lawyers work as "legal teams", and there is no reason why a deficit in mathematical ability should mean that you couldn't fit into the "team" in some capacity. How "successful" you become is beyond your control. Just give it your best shot, and enjoy the ride. Hope this helps. Good luck!!

It seems to me that one of the most important skills a lawyer must have is the ability to express difficult concepts is as unambiguous a manner as possible. If u r bad at spelling, grammar, syntax and style, you will be bad as a corporate lawyer. If you are in college, take writing and literature courses instead of the standard poly sci and prelaw stuff. Good luck.

Probably, depends just how bad you are. Extremely low math aptitude would suggest a deficiency in logic and reasoning skills meaning you wouldn't make a very good attorney. Getting a C in calculus because it bores you to tears probably doesn't mean anything.

Of course you can.
Obviously you will need to have a basic understanding of math (cant trust the account 100%)
so that you can count your big fat paycheck!
GOOD LUCK
I bet you could do anything that you put your mind too, including becoming better at math!
