In my third year and I’m already planning my great escape. You’re not alone. Someone told me to get a career coach, which I’m trying to find. That might be a good option.
Coach
I know a good career coach that works with a lot of lawyers transitioning out depending your market. I’m a former lawyer myself. Feel free to DM me if interested
So burnt out too 3 years in. You’re not alone! Wishing you peace and happiness in the next part of your journey.
Been there, done that! I love the law and helping people but the job was not what I wanted. I ended up starting a legal resource brokerage. I help a lot of people and make much better money but do not have to do the tedious part of the job!
A client pays a monthly membership fee and is entitled to unlimited legal advice and the vast majority of legal work for the price of their membership (filing fees are not covered and for a small number of issues they receive at 25% discount off rates). Pretty cool service and I have a lot of employers who offer what my services as an employee benefit.
OP, how has the time off/job search been going?
I took 3 weeks and found a job during that time. Switched from litigation to (mostly) corporate and working from home 3 days a week. I don’t want to jinx it but it’s going really well so far.
