[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I need to move in with family if we’re going to be doing these covid closures on and off for a while. I can’t take care of my toddler and work. This isn’t sustainable. But my family lives in a tiny town with no jobs for me. I am a litigator but don’t care about being in a courtroom. Substantively I have experience in criminal and civil law and civil rights. Ivy League law school. Where would I even start to look for an all WFH job?[/quote]

I have similar experience and credentials (HYS law school, multiple fed clerkships, more than ten years as a high level litigator with &gt; 10 federal jury trials) and I have been looking for a job like you are describing for the last year, with zero luck. I'm sure they exist for a lucky few, but the vast majority of attorney jobs require some facetime, and to the extent you are permitted to WFH, you typically need to prove yourself first by being in the office for a number of years. With COVID, I'm pretty sure I will never be able to find this kind of job in the near future, considering I wasn't able to when the economy was stellar and qualified attorneys were in demand.
