I'm not sure where you're at, but some government jobs will pay mid-law salaries. Also, while it gets a bad rap, ID has decent WLB and pays better than government work so it might be the happy middle you need. Good luck!
Unfortunately did ID before this and hours and pay were both worse. I guess I just stick it out.
Maybe switch practice areas? Or is your firm a notorious sweatshop? But really if you want serious WLB, you almost certainly will need to take a paycut. And if you really won’t or can’t reduce your living expenses (by downsizing or cutting costly cars or sending kids to public school), you may be stuck.
