This is an episode for anyone who is serious about leaving the law right now! In this episode of Love or Leave the Law, Adam Ouellette and Casey Berman interview Liz Brown, Harvard Law grad, former BigLaw partner, and author of the groundbreaking book, Life After Law: Finding Work You Love with the JD You Have, Liz is an expert on alternative career options for lawyers.
Liz talks with Adam and Casey about why so many lawyers struggle with career change, their unique challenges and options, and creative, effective strategies for identifying next steps. She fleshes out how her “preferred skills theory” helps lawyers reconsider their career options by reframing their talents, using the thirty ex-lawyers profiled in Life After Law, all of whom have found more engaging work outside of law, as examples. Her approach to career reinvention inspires real and positive change. This episode is full of actionable tips to leave the law.
