Alright here's my dilemma:

I just asked two people to write my letters of recommendation for law school. Assuming they say yes, most websites I've read recommend THREE letters of recommendation. However, I don't have that close of a relationship with any other professors/TAs.

I do play a club sport for my university and have a decent relationship with our coach. Should I ask him to write me a letter or is that too casual? He 100% knows my worth ethic, determination, etc., which could look good on a rec letter. Alternatively, do I ask a professor I've talked to maybe once, or just leave it at two people?

Any help is appreciated, thank you!

    Any former employer who, you believe, can write an excellent letter of recommendation will do. It does not need to be a legal internship for the letter of recommendation to benefit you in the law school admission process.

    Is it possible to receive a letter of recommendation from a recent employer, such as a recent internship? I find that recent employers can also write great letters of recommendation if there is an established relationship, particularly employers you have interned for.

    Unfortunately I don't have any internship experience :(
