What does it really mean to protect and serve? When Jeffrey H. Lurie first discovered that law enforcement would be his life’s calling, he didn’t have the answer. In fact, he had not a clue, let alone how to start doing it for a living. He only knew he’d have to forge his own career path and that it would involve a lot more than watching episodes of CSI and Law & Order.
Today, Sergeant Jeffrey H. Lurie has taken all his experience and expertise and turned it into a practical, informative, and fascinating guide to becoming a police officer. Far from the constant adrenaline rushes, wisecracking partners, and tidy endings seen on television programs, real-life policing requires a level of commitment, intelligence, and self-sacrifice that’s not for the faint of heart.
But for those ready to put their lives on the line for their community—and willing to do the less-glamorous paperwork that goes with the territory—this guide offers invaluable advice on how to earn an officer’s badge. Far from a boring how-to manual, Sergeant Lurie’s personal anecdotes will excite you, and his insider advice offers you steady footing and a clear path as you start your journey.

About the Author
Jeffrey H. Lurie was born and raised in southeastern Massachusetts. While on a tour of the North Attleboro, Massachusetts police station with his Cub Scout pack, Jeffrey met Sergeant Danny Coyle, who would later become his mentor. Sergeant Coyle facilitated Jeffrey’s attendance at a summer D.A.R.E. Camp program and wrote him a letter of recommendation for his first position in law enforcement as an E911 police dispatcher.
Jeffrey spent nearly four years writing Paving Your Path to Policing, drawing on his experiences from the police academy, field training, patrol, and as a detective assigned to various units. He was also a member of his department’s SWAT team. Jeffrey has served on oral interview panels and conducted background investigations for employment purposes. Now Sergeant Jeffrey H. Lurie, he and his wife live in Virginia with their two children and three dogs.
