Career Change Advice for Lawyers Seeking More Fulfilling Work

Becoming a lawyer is often seen as a prestigious career milestone-society tells us that once you’ve achieved it, YOU’VE MADE IT. So why it is that so many lawyers come to us looking for a way out?
It turns out that careers are never a one-size-fits-all. What’s great for one person might not be great for another. Many lawyers reach a point where they feel like law no longer fits them (or maybe it never did!) They're interested in doing something else, something that aligns better with their life and values.
Today, we’re sharing the stories of four lawyers who reached a turning point in their legal careers. Whether it was burnout, stress, boredom, a misalignment of values, or a shift in priorities, each one decided it was time for a change and they made it happen!
