After working 10+ years as a Paralegal, unless you're in a "dream job" environment with all the support from your attorneys, have a plan. If not, unless you want to work in an unpredictable environment for ever....don't be complacent. I have used ChatGPT to give me transferable roles I could work in based on my Resume and the options are quite impressive and I would highly recommend, even if you're happy with your current work situation. There comes a time when we just need a "change" or need to slow down the pace.... we're human after all, and are allowed to be kind to ourselves. :)
Yes, I have been looking into drafting a transferable skills resume to see what else I can do besides law.
Yes! You are not alone. I feel sorry for those who only plan to stay for a short time and get sucked in. They see the real picture and want to change course and then life happens - marriage, family, mortgage, etc. I saw early on how unhappy attorneys are and decided not to go to law school.
I feel the same exact way. Been a paralegal for over 20 years.
