Creative to client side, who has done it and how?

Often when I hear of people going clientside it's usually account managers or producers, or people with generally more transferable , objectively measurable skills.

Trying to get out of agency world and into client side copywriting but I feels like I have too many conceptual work in my portfolio and not enough "content writing"
Any tips?

I'm in the same boat. I think we need to create a portfolio of strategic thinking and longer form writing, such as manifestos and emails. All the stuff we would never think to put in our 'creative work' portfolios.

Anyone knows the chances of location being changed after receiving the offer and getting tagged to a project?

I have not yet accepted the offer.

Seems you can make your client’s case worse (e.g., by missing a deadline or some egregious error), but that’s about it. So, practice of law feels quite pointless. What am I missing?

We mistakenly think that forgiveness is weakness as if we just capitulated. Forgiveness isn’t a sign of weakness- It takes strength to forgive. God tells us to forgive.
