Career Resources for Lawyers to Navigate the Current Economy: Making Your Exit from the Law
Tuesday, March 31, 2009, 6 PM - 8 PM
House of the Association, 42 West 44th Street
Many lawyers think about taking the skills they have acquired as lawyers and translating them into a new profession, but practical and other considerations prevent them from ever making the move. Panelists will discuss how the financial crisis may offer the perfect opportunity for lawyers to finally make that switch into career/financial coaching, executive recruiting, academia, philanthropy or business.
